Organizational Supports for ADHD Students
Primer text from the College of William & Mary.https://education.wm.edu/centers/ttac/documents/packets/adhd.pdfMany students with ADHD have significant difficulties with organization. 
They are more likely to respond positively when teachers establish class routines and set procedures and maintain a well-organized learning environment. Clear rules and advanced planning are keys to success for teachers of students with ADHD.The following organizational supports are particularly useful. Students should be taught to use these tools through teacher modeling and guided practice with feedback before being expected to use them more independently.Assignment Notebook: Provide the student with an assignment notebook to helporganize homework and seatwork.Color-Coded Folders: Provide the student with color-coded folders to helporganize assignments for different academic subjects.Homework Partners: Assign the student a partner who can help record

Embedding Habits, Skills, and Disposition in PAs
Competency Info
The Advanced Performance Assessment for Learning
Design stack is designed so that, if all three credentials are taken together, they will become more than the sum of their parts. Each micro-credential is intended to be able to stand on its own; however, the ideas and activities of each of these credentials support and expand on the others, allowing a fuller appreciation of performance assessment and its implications. Even more value will be gained by engaging in all three Performance Assessment for Learning stacks together.
Habits, Skills, and Dispositions:
Habits, Skills, and Dispositions are those qualities that—in addition to academic knowledge - are necessary for success in college, career, and civic life. Examples include collaboration, creativity, communication, and self-direction, among others. Increasingly, these habits, skills, and dispositions are seen as essential for the success of students in college, career, and civic life (for more, see the infographic in the resources). They are referred to in the field by a number of names, including essential skills and dispositions, work-study habits, non-cognitive skills, etc.
Performance assessments that measure habits, skills, and dispositions provide students with feedback on how well developed these essential skills are and how they might improve performance.

You're Not Welcome Here: How Social Distancing Can Destroy The Global Economy
It's what people are being asked to tell each other. Less than 10 days ago, London banned people who live in different households from meeting each other indoors, to stop the spread of the coronavirus.
 
"Nobody wants to see more restrictions, but this is deemed to be necessary in order to protect Londoners' lives," London Mayor Sadiq Khan told the London Assembly.
 
Taking away the welcome mat is key to cutting off the path of the coronavirus. From the beginning of the pandemic, cities, states, and countries have banned each other. And now, eight months into lockdowns that have led to immense stress and fatigue among people, some places around the world are introducing even more draconian measures.24 
The path toward recovery continues to be inherently antisocial and runs counter to how humans interact, live lives, and conduct their business. This unwelcome policy — which has already harmed families, societies, and economies — has the potential to lead to a tectonic shift in how the world functions in the foreseeable future.

Formative Assessments
Researcher Laura Greenstein sums up a professional consensus on formative assessment, which is rooted in three significant concepts:

Formative assessment is focused on students.
Formative assessment is instructionally informative.
Formative assessment is based on outcomes. Frequent opportunities for teachers to identify student progress and provide feedback are at the heart of formative assessment. Formative assessments are used to capture snapshots of students' knowledge or skill at particular moments. There are many ways that teachers generate these snapshots of how their students are doing to track their progress.

Some aspects of effective formative assessment strategies include:

Use questions as assessments and as feedback that moves learning forward.
Involve students in thinking about their learning.
Plan to assess learning during and between lessons (short-cycle formative assessment).
Provide immediate feedback.
Look for patterns in student work and plan future instruction based on the results.

Collaborative Education
Reflection
Prompt

Were you successful in providing opportunities for students? Why or why not? What improvements or revisions could be included?
How did you provide instruction and formative feedback on these habits, skills, and dispositions to students along the way?
If you were to embed habits, skills, and/or dispositions in another performance, what would you do differently from this time?

Collaborative Discussion
Introduction:
The educator
prepares students for discussion, establishes an environment that welcomes thought, scaffolds discussion where needed, monitors participation, and consolidates thinking.
 
Collaborative discussion is one of the most effective tools to deepen students’ understanding and engagement with texts. Discussion offers students the opportunity to build arguments and defend them with evidence, consider opposing points of view, elaborate ideas, and build complex webs of knowledge by revealing and furthering thinking. Unfortunately, the amount of time devoted to classroom discussion is measurable in seconds per day (Nystrand 2006), and when discussion does occur, the quality and depth of students’ discourse is often limited (Zwiers & Crawford, 2011).
Though discussion is often considered a student-centric activity, reaping the benefits of discussion requires educators to play an active role in preparing students, creating an environment that welcomes thought, scaffolding discussion when needed, monitoring participation, and consolidating thinking.
