I thoroughly enjoyed the lecture that we had this past week, and I feel that I have learned many new things from the group discussion. In my breakout room, we emphasized the importance of  support and building a relationship with both students and their families to help make a positive impact. We recognized that teachers play such a key role in helping a student to get assessed  for different things, and that the process of getting assessed can be strenuous on the student and their family. Doing small things like regular check-ins and observations can really help to support others that are navigating through the assessment process.
