U.D.L. & Conferencing-Kid's Mental Health. Fall/Autumn.

By Art Shack by JB

Need an awesome UDL / Conferencing Activity? I have just the thing for you! These creative U.D.L. & Conferencing slides were designed to be printed and displayed as examples while you teach. Use this Google Slide file to display these beautiful images one-by-one on a large screen. For this activity I reviewed what U.D.L. is and how it is used in my Art Room-and how it could be used differently in classrooms. I also reviewed how I conference with students: as a class, in a small group, and in a one-on-one situation. I used my pinch pot clay sculpture unit to showcase U.D.L. & Conferencing in my Art Room. I had students use the U.D.L. Checklist Worksheet to focus on Engagement, Representation, and Expression. I hope you and your kiddos love this! Enjoy.

Apology Letter Template

By Ms. J's ELA

This resource is a simple template for an apology letter. While working with middle school students, I heard a lot of snarky comments being spewed without much forethought. I started having students write apology letters when those comments came out. The template is designed to help students think about their intentions, how they likely made the other person feel, and what they will do differently in the future.
