What to read after Making the Common Core Writing Standards Accessible Through Universal Design for Learning?

Unlock hidden writing skills in all learners through UDL!

The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for writing are promising but present a host of challenges in implementation, especially for struggling students. In this valuable resource, Sally A. Spencer demonstrates the potential of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) as a framework for making the CCSS writing and language standards accessible to all kids. Educators who utilize these strategies will know:

• How to leverage the strengths of students to optimize writing instruction and overcome their weaknesses
• The ways UDL can minimize the roadblocks in CCSS implementation
• How to - and how not to - use technology to teach writing and language conventions

With dozens of classroom-ready activities, resources for further reading, and reproducibles, this easy-to-use guide will help you make all students proficient writers.

"This is the ultimate guide to successful UDL implementation, with ready-to- use activities and resources that support the Common Core Writing Standards for students in all grades. Energize your classroom with this practical guide that engages all learners and helps you plan your lessons with ease. This is a must-have for all teachers!"
