EPS Summer Extravaganza 2026

Students enter our classrooms with a wide range of learning styles, needs, and skills. Attendees will explore the UDL tools available in the Read&Write and OrbitNote extensions (available to all EPS students) that support reading, writing, note taking, studying, and learning. Participants will leave with practical strategies for making learning accessible and engaging for all students. Participants need to bring a charged device.

Many students with and without disabilities benefit from alternative reading methods such as text-to-speech or audio text, but how do we decide who requires which accommodations, if any? In this session participants will learn how the Universal Protocol for Accommodations in Reading (uPAR) can help determine what, if any, reading accommodations work best for their students. Attendees will learn how to analyze results and create an actionable plan for how to support struggling readers. Participants need to bring a charged device.

We will look at how to look at assignments and assessments you are already doing and how to (hopefully) quickly analyze what needs to be tweaked in your upcoming lesson plans.

How to impact and build our programs culture with building a philosophy, pillars of your program and making your teams the most positive and impactful program at your site.
