Let’s celebrate a truly creative educator! Madison Mildenberger from Mason Crest is showing us how it’s done. Her classroom adaptations for CVI learners are so effective that they actually benefit her entire class! Bravo, Madison! @ATS_FCPS @MasonCrestES #TeacherAppreciation

This clever PS teacher gives each student a picture that matches the one on their assigned table. It’s a brilliant way to use visual supports to foster independence during the transition from morning meeting to work time. @ATS_FCPS #PreschoolTeacher #TeacherTips #VisualSupports

Check out this routine: after putting away their gear, preschoolers "sign in" by tracing their names on laminated sheets. It’s a brilliant way to build fine motor skills and letter formation right at the start of the day! #EarlyLiteracy #TeacherHacks #FineMotorSkills @ATS_FCPS

Start the day with choice! This preschool has a brilliant, accessible way for all students to choose their greeting (high-five, wave, fist bump). Simple steps for huge gains in independence! #ECE #TeacherTips #VisualAids @ATS_FCPS

On Veterans Day, this educator ensured their student with CVI could "see" the speaker at the assembly by capturing a close-up photo. This smart adaptation ensures full engagement despite visual challenges. That’s UDL! #CVI #EdTech #Inclusion @ViennaES @ATS_FCPS

Don't underestimate the power of pinning your AT extensions! That tiny click saves a great deal of time. Looking forward to the Read&Write patch—we know the latest Google update caused some hiccups, but the fix is on the way! #AssistiveTech #ChromeTips #ReadAndWrite @ATS_FCPS

The Spanish interpreter didn't show up for my training today! Quick fix: I used Google Chrome's built-in translation feature to add captions. Don't forget this easy accessibility feature: Settings > Accessibility > Captions. #EdTech #TeacherHacks #Accessibility @ATS_FCPS
