The Goalbook Toolkit is an amazing resource that helps educators plan lessons in a manner that meets the UDL principles. They provide a free 30 Day trial with access to all of their resources. The toolkit provides specific examples of strategies that can be used to meet each of the specific areas that fall under multiple means of representation, action and expression, and engagement. You can click on each bullet point for a detailed description of each example. This resource has really helped me in coming up with a variety of ways to create a Universally Designed Lesson.
