Knob Hill Teachers Apply Universal Design for Learning Principles to Create Access for All!

At Knob Hill Elementary in San Marcos, Christina Renolds (Education Specialist) and Kayla Richardson (General Education teacher) work together to help level the playing field for their students.  This co-teaching duo has done an amazing job to make sure all students in the classroom can learn without "barriers" getting in the way.  One example of this can be found during math instruction.  Kayla provides thoughtfully prepared scaffolds to help students (that need them) with note-taking.

Ms. Renolds shared that math was never an area of comfort for her, but because of Ms. Richardson's organization and teaching style, it is now her favorite subject to teach.

Thanks for all you do!
