Confessions of a PYP Teacher
This podcast is for anyone who is seeking ways to design learning that promotes learner independence. It began as a passion project to help teachers during the pandemic and has transformed how I look at learning within my practice. Each episode is 15 to 30 minutes long with thoughtful ideas and some tips to apply back to your practice. The episodes are largely based on the IB Primary Years Programme, but good teaching is for everyone. Even if you are teaching in a different type of program or government school, you can easily adapt the ideas to your learning context. It just requires a bit of creativity and open-mindedness. Happy Listening! For more ideas, visit lugerlach.com.

C143: Specialist and Supporting Teachers: Inquiry 2.0
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Welcome back to our specialist and supporting teachers series! This is our sixth
episode leaning into inquiry for our supporting teachers, particularly the inclusion specialist.
In specified roles that support learning and behavioral development, the challenge is there isn’t a set curriculum you are following. This is how the PYP can help you the most, because it’s full of approaches to help bring about the best in the learners that you support.
This can be a challenge, but it’s totally worth it when you see learners finally making meaning of the content or process they are trying to master. As a supporting teacher, this is at the heart of your role.
Take a few minutes to listen to this episode and hopefully it will help you in your role as an inclusion specialist.
