RLA Research-Based Instructional Strategies (RBIS) are instructional strategies representing the most significant changes needed to bridge the gap between research and practice. The RBIS are a set of research-based practices that highlight misconceptions that are most common in the field. They cover topics that sometimes require conceptual or philosophical changes to how we approach instruction and form a set of practices that are supported by research and should be present in classrooms, regardless of instructional materials. These strategies are based in the science of how students best learn Reading Language Arts in K-12 classrooms. The RBIS also demonstrate why High Quality Instructional Materials are important and what is required to implement those materials well. This session will cover the four RLA RBIS. Please bring laptops.

Participants will learn to: • Identify the signs and symptoms of an opioid-related overdose. • Administer an opioid antagonist (e.g., naloxone/Narcan). • Implement emergency procedures when responding to an overdose. • Properly store and dispose of opioid antagonists. Training & toolkit supports Texas schools and school districts in implementing evidence-based opioid overdose prevention, response strategies, and facilitates adherence to Texas Administrative Code § 40.86 and Texas Education Code § 38.221–5. This training satisfies the requirements of the mandatory naloxone administration training (TEC § 38.222). Training provided in alignment with Fentanyl Contamination Education Grant. It is NOT intended to serve as a training on educating students about fentanyl; House Bill 3908, also called Tucker’s Law, requires that all students in grades 6-12 receive Fentanyl Abuse Prevention and Drug Poisoning Awareness Education annually.

Assistive technology (AT) is more than just devices—it’s about unlocking access, independence, and opportunity for students with disabilities. Yet, confusion and misinformation often get in the way of effective implementation. In this engaging and practical session, classroom teachers will explore common myths about assistive technology and learn the truth about what AT is—and isn’t. Participants will walk through the legal requirements for considering AT in the IEP process and discover tools to guide collaborative team discussions.

Paraprofessionals play a key role in helping students access learning—and assistive technology (AT) is one of the most powerful tools available to support that success. But what counts as AT? Who decides what’s used? And how can you help students without doing the work for them? In this session, paraprofessionals will explore and debunk common myths about assistive technology, learn the basics of what AT includes, and understand how it supports student independence. Participants will also learn how to recognize when AT is part of a student’s IEP, and how to use it as intended in the classroom, without over-supporting or stepping beyond their role. This session is about building confidence, clarity, and practical strategies for supporting students with AT the right way—so they can learn, grow, and thrive. Participants will leave with: * A clear understanding of what assistive technology is (and what it isn’t) * Tips for recognizing when and how to use AT as part of a student’s IEP * Strategies for supporting student independence with AT * Guidance on working with the teacher and specialists to support AT use in real time #ATESC1, #LIDESC1

Day 4 will focus efforts on how the use of technology is shifting and expanding literacy as well as how to achieve stronger home-school partnerships. Literacy leaders are increasingly concentrating on the evolving role of technology in reshaping and broadening the concept of literacy. As digital tools and platforms become more integrated into educational practices, literacy now encompasses not only traditional reading and writing skills but also the ability to navigate, evaluate, and create content across various digital media. To effectively harness this shift, educators and leaders are also prioritizing the development of robust home-school partnerships. By actively engaging families in the learning process and leveraging technology to facilitate communication and collaboration, schools can create a more supportive and cohesive learning environment. This approach not only enhances students' literacy skills but also fosters a community culture that values and supports lifelong learning.

RLA Research-Based Instructional Strategies (RBIS) are instructional strategies representing the most significant changes needed to bridge the gap between research and practice. The RBIS are a set of research-based practices that highlight misconceptions that are most common in the field. They cover topics that sometimes require conceptual or philosophical changes to how we approach instruction and form a set of practices that are supported by research and should be present in classrooms, regardless of instructional materials. These strategies are based in the science of how students best learn Reading Language Arts in K-12 classrooms. The RBIS also demonstrate why High Quality Instructional Materials are important and what is required to implement those materials well. This session will cover the four RLA RBIS.

Presenter: Shannon Paige, M. A., CCC-SLP Description: Writing, beyond handwriting, is a complex communication process that is learned and shaped over time. It involves the use of text and allows for improved self-expression, increased independence, and active participation in the community. It is an expected outcome of our current educational system yet many students with disabilities, especially those with complex communication needs, have limited access to writing tools, writing opportunities, and writing expectations. This session will highlight the importance of including access to the letters of the alphabet in combination with other symbol sets when developing communication systems, highlight alternative writing tools, and it will provide simple strategies that can be applied early and across settings to promote long-term writing expectations and writing habits to support communication. *3.0 TSHA CEUs will be awarded- *REGISTRATION FOR THIS WEBINAR CLOSES THE WEDNESDAY BEFORE THE WEBINAR AT 5:00PM.

The RBIS are a set of research-based practices that highlight misconceptions that are most common in the field. They cover topics that sometimes require conceptual or philosophical changes to how we approach instruction and form a set of practices that are supported by research and should be present in classrooms, regardless of instructional materials. These strategies are based in the science of how students best learn reading in K-12 classrooms. The RBIS also demonstrate why High Quality Instructional Materials are important and what is required to implement those materials well.

The Monteiro Interview Guidelines for Diagnosing the Autism Spectrum-Second Edition (MIGDAS-2) is a qualitative interview process that helps evaluators individualize the diagnostic process for children, adolescents, and adults. Through systematic interviews with parents, caregivers, teachers and the individuals being evaluated, a narrative description of the autism brain system differences is developed. This session will give participants tools to conduct a sensory-based diagnostic interview with individuals whose communication skills range from verbally fluent to functionally nonverbal using the MIGDAS-2 system and protocols. Participants will learn how to describe individuals in positive and descriptive terms rather than deficit based terminology commonly used in special education evaluations. This session is appropriate for School Psychologist. This training is of no charge for LEA staff within Region One. You must register using your LEA district email to avoid being dropped.
