UNLEASH THE POWER OF ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY TOOLS FOR STUDENTS ON YOUR CASELOAD.

Learn AT strategies for determining your students’ needs in reading, writing, and math.
Practice using basic AT tools, with demonstration and support.
Write AT into the IEP, like other accommodations.


WHY IS THIS WORTH MY TIME? (I’M ALREADY SO CRAZED!)

Do you wish your students could be more successful? How many are reading 2 or more years below grade level by? Are your students struggling with written output (spelling, vocabulary and organization)?

Be the hero you are! Yes, it takes time to learn to use these tools (I’ll help you with shortcuts).
You and your students will be amazed at what a difference they make.

Apply what you learn immediately.


HOW CAN I FIT THIS WORKSHOP INTO MY SCHEDULE?

The virtual format is designed for your busy schedule. We will meet webinar style, 2 hours a week via zoom.
I’ll show you how to use tools, what their benefits are and how to determine if they are appropriate for your students.
Time saving techniques to motivate your students to practice new tools will make your heart sing!

Support for your overloaded brain: time saving resources, quick cards and short videos have been developed for you to use & keep.


NOT JUST ANOTHER WORKSHOP!

In person or virtually, use the skills you learn immediately, with your own students.
Feel confident your students are getting access to the curriculum:
