This clever PS teacher gives each student a picture that matches the one on their assigned table. It’s a brilliant way to use visual supports to foster independence during the transition from morning meeting to work time. @ATS_FCPS #PreschoolTeacher #TeacherTips #VisualSupports

Check out this routine: after putting away their gear, preschoolers "sign in" by tracing their names on laminated sheets. It’s a brilliant way to build fine motor skills and letter formation right at the start of the day! #EarlyLiteracy #TeacherHacks #FineMotorSkills @ATS_FCPS

Workspaces on Google Drive can be helpful for keeping documents organized. Staff and students can set up workspaces for different projects, classes, and functions. Thanks for the tip ATS Coach Ruth! #InclusiveTools #ATisEverywhere

Start the day with choice! This preschool has a brilliant, accessible way for all students to choose their greeting (high-five, wave, fist bump). Simple steps for huge gains in independence! #ECE #TeacherTips #VisualAids @ATS_FCPS

Need a tool to help students with visual needs focus on text? Try the free Roman Word Bubbling website! It’s perfect for isolating words and supporting students with visual processing difficulties. https://t.co/q9qidmDj6e

Ms. Ehlers, a speech path, is thrilled about the weekly virtual meetings connecting her elementary AAC users with high school buddies. It builds relationships and authentic practice. Priceless! #AAC #SLPeeps #Inclusion @ATS_FCPS @MarshallRoadES @TJHSST_Official

On Veterans Day, this educator ensured their student with CVI could "see" the speaker at the assembly by capturing a close-up photo. This smart adaptation ensures full engagement despite visual challenges. That’s UDL! #CVI #EdTech #Inclusion @ViennaES @ATS_FCPS

Watch this student use her head switch to self-advocate and say 'Go!' Giving students real choices isn't "nice-to-have"—it's how they learn their voice matters. Thanks, Coach Caitlin! #AdaptedAccess #StudentVoice #ATisEverywhere #Accessibility

ATS Coach Chelsea stopped by Ms. Lea Ripper’s preschool class at Cardinal Forest ES to see some amazing pumpkin fun in action! The students were learning and sharing all about pumpkins using their AAC devices. With the right tools, everyone can join in the fun! #AAC #StudentVoice

AT Coach Ashley caught kids in Ms. Isasi-Aquino's preschool class @NSpringfieldES pairing verbal speech when pointing to pictures requesting drink, eat or finished. Sometimes they expand sentences using a sentence strip "I want ___". #LowTech #StudentVoice #Visuals

Don't underestimate the power of pinning your AT extensions! That tiny click saves a great deal of time. Looking forward to the Read&Write patch—we know the latest Google update caused some hiccups, but the fix is on the way! #AssistiveTech #ChromeTips #ReadAndWrite @ATS_FCPS
