Reformulating Course Content for Accessibility and Mastery

Autonomy: UDL, levelled student-selected texts for decoding practice on topics that are relevant to them, choice boards for games/activities, assignment options (traditional, authentic and culturally-responsive), independent work time to consolidate learning at their own pace. Mastery: Phonics practice (consonant/vowel sounds, blends, etc.), word manipulation, word wall for frequently used/irregular words, rhyming schemes, read alouds, dictation, decoding and comprehension. Utilize direct instruction, small groups (learning centres), and 1:1 intervention. Recommended assessment - BAS and ELAT. Recommended programs - Heggerty & UFLI, Projectread.ai Purpose: Reformulate course content so that it is accessible to ALL learners (decodable texts that align with skills; particularly important in a tech school like mine), common language and reinforcement between overlapping subjects (measurement in Math and Construction classes), collaborative projects between subjects, field trips/guest speakers to connect learning to application.
