Simple, Effective Tips to Make Inclusion Happen: 

Surprise! April had five Wednesdays, so you're getting a bonus episode to wrap up our Inclusion Series—and this one is all about action.

Throughout the month, we’ve broken down the barriers to inclusion, defined what inclusion really means, explored reverse inclusion, and shared how to build strong inclusive teams. But there’s one piece we haven’t covered yet: how to actually implement inclusion successfully.

"The less you are doing for your students, the better you are doing your job."

In this episode, I’m sharing practical, realistic tips to help you support students in general education settings with confidence and purpose—whether you’re a special education teacher, paraprofessional, or co-teaching partner.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

  • Why “hovering” isn't the best strategy—and what to do instead
  • How to use roaming support to increase student independence
  • Ideas for using small group instruction effectively in inclusive classrooms
  • What true co-teaching should look like and feel like
  • The biggest dos and don’ts for providing support during inclusion
  • How to keep collaboration strong and student dignity intact

Key Takeaways:

  • Inclusion isn’t about perfection—it’s about progress. It’s about taking small, intentional steps to help every student feel seen, valued, and supported.
  • The less you are doing for your students, the BETTER you are doing your job!
