In this episode of Comprehend THIS!, we sit down with Jackie Deming-Plunk and Kelly Ferguson to talk about what happens when colleagues and departments aren’t exactly cheering for your CI approach. From awkward meetings to subtle digs, we cover the real struggles teachers face—and more importantly, the practical strategies that help you keep your sanity, win over skeptics, and stay true to acquisition-driven instruction. Whether you’re the lone CI voice in your building or just navigating some side-eye, this conversation will remind you that you’re not alone.
