Background

About Natalie Winter

SERT/Teacher Description: I have had the opportunity to develop hands-on and inquiry-based approaches that allows for growing success as inclusive learning environments are established with a focus on equity and diversity. I create and implement Individual Education Plans for students, explore various executive functioning skills and address student needs on a case by case basis. I have had the privilege of working with many student with multiple exceptionalities (i.e, ADHD, ADD, Autism, global delays, speech and language delays, and more. My goal is to take the curriculum and use inquiry-based activities to extend student thinking and initiate personal interest in curriculum subjects, whereby students can demonstrate their understanding and knowledge in innovative ways and promote higher order thinking. My teaching strategies consist of using manipulatives, resources, academic tools to foster a deeper level of understanding while providing differentiated instruction that meets Individual needs. I coordinated tasks with my grade team to ensure the data collected was being reinforced within our lesson plans to obtain measurable goals for students.
