Support all learners to grow and thrive in their learning environments.
Focus Area
Strategically implementing Inclusive Classrooms practices throughout every classroom requires differentiated training for your teachers, buy-in from all educators, and a clear path to success. Our comprehensive professional learning plans are built from four distinct phases to support educators at all levels throughout your district.
Bring your team together. Norm on new concepts, shared language, and best practices for inclusive classrooms teaching and learning. Launch experiences are best done in person. We include the teachers, instructional and school leaders who will work together to achieve this transformation.
Teachers match with an instructional coach to plan lessons, try strategies, and measure the impact for students. Using the Try-Measure-Learn approach, coaches provide personalized support to help teachers begin using inclusive classrooms teaching and learning practices to achieve measurable outcomes for students.
By now, teachers know what success can look like in inclusive classrooms. Learning Walks support teachers in achieving target outcomes and building an ongoing professional learning plan. This non-evaluative tool helps instructional leaders identify and celebrate areas of growth for inclusive classrooms teaching and learning.
Learning Walk for Strengthening Teaching Practice
Learning Walk Strategy Sessions – Coming soon!
Provide collaborative learning experiences aligned to measurable changes you want to see in the classroom. Virtual or In-Person Workshops offer targeted, collaborative learning where teachers have the opportunity to set goals, identify manageable implementation steps, and create a plan to reflect on results for an ongoing change in practice.
Outcomes connect each professional learning experience. Every experience ties to an outcome that makes tangible changes in practice, impacting students and teachers. For the Inclusive Classrooms focus area, educators will work to achieve the following outcomes.
Outcome: I center student strengths in my instructional practices.
Outcome: I develop instructional techniques that encourage all students to thrive, with a focus on students with diverse learning needs.
Outcome: I implement both classroom-wide and differentiated practices to support students with disabilities.
Outcome: I implement both classroom-wide and differentiated practices to support multilingual learners.
Outcome: I apply a community-building approach to my classroom management practices.
Outcome: I honor the contributions of families to create partnerships that support student success.
It takes one to three years to implement meaningful changes in teaching and learning practice, depending on your district’s goals and size. Our comprehensive professional learning plans incorporate a variety of learning experiences. Whether your teachers prefer in-person, virtual, in a group, or self-directed, we align to how adult learners actually learn. BetterLesson creates a learning plan tailored to your district strategic plan that includes a mix of research-backed and outcome-focused learning experiences.
