Description

Creating an inclusive classroom where students feel motivated to do their best can be a challenge, right? With over 12 years of experience in the Special Education Classroom, Jon Smith has tried various ways to engage his learners. The key was in providing a safe place where they can choose how they communicate as well as the opportunity to showcase their story to the world.

Join Jon as he explores the reasons why Book Creator makes a great choice for diverse learning environments and an effective UDL tool. If you’re looking for creative ideas to help all your students find their voice and PMC, then look no further!
