This session equips administrators and teachers with a framework to support general and special education teams in collaboratively planning inclusive instruction. Participants will explore how to guide educators in integrating Universal Design for Learning (UDL), differentiation, and Specially Designed Instruction (SDI) into unit and lesson planning. The session will model a structured planning process that school leaders can use to facilitate team discussions, provide coaching, and ensure instruction meets the diverse needs of all learners. Attendees will leave with practical tools and strategies to implement this approach at the school or district level, fostering a culture of collaboration and equity in instruction.
