Our U.S.A. Services

In today’s classrooms, general and special education teachers are merged into co-taught spaces to teach students with and without disabilities. Oftentimes, they are not guided on how to co-teach with evidence-based practices. We provide an interactive in-person or virtual workshop experience on the various co-teaching models and inclusive practices that challenge traditional notions of ability/disability.

We conduct follow up in-person or virtual coaching sessions with teachers where we visit their classrooms and provide co-teaching teams with small group planning sessions on how to incorporate inclusive practices, and the co-teaching models into their daily instruction.

We consult in-person or virtually with school/district administration on structures that maximize opportunities for participation for a diverse student body and how to organize your co-teaching staff with necessary supports.

Literacy is a human right and is a fundamental part of the human experience. It is the collective responsibility of all teachers (regardless of subject area or grade level) to develop their theoretical, practical, methodological, and evidence-based knowledge for teaching reading and writing in their subject areas.

Through in-person or virtual workshops, coaching, and consultations, we will model for teachers the evidence-based strategies from literacy research. Teachers will be coached on how to facilitate various literacy programs such as Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Into Reading, Expeditionary Learning, Wilson Phonics, Fundations, Just Words, Heggerty, the Writing Revolution, etc.

Teachers will be coached on how to assess students using various practical tools, how to incorporate the various dimensions of the science of reading into their lessons, how to balance teaching students how to read/write in their subject areas, etc.

An emphasis will be placed on incorporating antiracist/culturally relevant children’s literature into their instruction.

Teaching math can be a formidable challenge, but we are here to simplify it for your teachers. Whether it’s teaching elementary, middle, or high school students, we build teachers’ content knowledge with research-backed instructional methods to make math an exciting and enjoyable experience for your students.

We will work with you to curate professional development and coaching to suit the needs of your school.

We provide tailor made in person or virtual workshops/coaching for schools and districts to train their teaching assistants or paraprofessionals on educating children with disabilities.

We explore the various perspectives on inclusion and disability, causes, and effects of various exceptionalities, along with the historical, social, cultural, and legal foundations of special education in the U.S.A.

Special education evidence-based practices for different subject areas and disability types are discussed and modeled.

To be an effective teacher you must have high expectations, design lessons where students master concepts and you must have classroom/behavior management skills. In our professional developments and coaching, we guide reluctant disciplinarians through the process of designing their classroom with appropriate procedures, routines, expectations, reinforcers, etc.

We train teachers to measure and assess students' behaviors and evaluate whether their interventions are effective. We also design behavior intervention plans (BIPs) for students who warrant more intensive interventions.

Hello Inclusion will work with your teaching staff from various subject areas to form a transdisciplinary curriculum that infuses an exploration of culturally and socially relevant concepts, issues or problems.

Students will be able to gain a deeper understanding of concepts when it is integrated through multiple disciplines. This cohesive curriculum will enhance collaboration with teachers and students to solve multifaceted societal problems.

Differentiated instruction offers a concept of lesson planning that strives to incorporate diversity into teaching by including accommodations/modifications that can be made to the learning tasks offered to students.

We provide in-person or virtual workshops, and coaching on how to make teachers’ lessons differentiated based on:

• content: the topics, and skills

• process: the mode of engagement

• product: the evidence of learning

• learning environment

• student readiness

• student interest

• student learning profile including racial/cultural learning styles

Universal Design for Learning offers a conceptualization of planning, teaching, and learning, which presumes that all students possess unique sets of strengths and needs.

We provide in-person or virtual workshops, coaching, and consultations on how to make your school’s curriculum and environment more accessible to a broad range of students.

We coach teachers on how to plan curriculum that includes:

• multiple means of representation

• multiple means of action and expression

• multiple means of engagement

Hello Inclusion has gathered a compilation of culturally relevant children’s literature across all grade levels that incorporates the stories of different groups and communities of people (Black, White, Hispanic/Latinx(o)(a), Asian, Indigenous, MENA, LGBTQIA+, etc.).

We introduce corresponding lessons to this literature that incorporate the leading research on the science of reading and writing (utilizing National Reading Panel/What Works Clearinghouse) and that infuses principles of antiracism and culturally relevant teaching from scholars such as Geneva Gay, Ghlody Muhammad, Gloria Larson-Billings, Tyrone Howard, and many others.

We offer in-person or virtual workshops, coaching, and consultations with schools to introduce the children’s literature and to model lessons that discuss issues of race, culture, ethnicity, class, religion, and gender identity.

Disproportionality in special education is the over and underrepresentation of particular racial/ethnic groups in special education and disability categories.

We offer in-person or virtual workshops with school staff and district/school level consultations on how to curb disproportionality rates amongst particular racial/ethnic groups.

During these workshops and consultations, we discuss concepts of (anti)racism, monolingualism, linguistic diversity, classroom management, literacy instruction, colorism, deficit thinking, bias, and the history of special education and testing.

Hello Inclusion conducts equity audits with schools and districts to identify institutional practices that may produce achievement gaps and other discriminatory trends in data that affect students.

We use quantitative and qualitative data to analyze three key areas: programmatic equity, teaching quality equity, and achievement equity.

Hello Inclusion looks at this data to highlight key educational equity issues within the school or district, provide insights into possible causes of those issues and recommendations to address these issues.
