Does anyone know what criteria determines how restrictive of a setting students are placed in?? I’m a preschool sped teacher in a 12:1 room and some of my students are verbal with a 25% delay while others are fully nonverbal with more than a 50% delay in multiple areas. How were they all recommended for a 12:1 instead of a 10:1 or 8:1??

What do you guys do at the end of the day? I teach in a middle school self contained class. Grades 6 to 8. At 2 the kids come back from gym and then I have them until 4. By 2 they are ready to go home and at that time I need to teach civics or science and they are so not motivated. Any suggestions on how to make the last 2 hours more bearable? Thanks

iso: an elementary math curriculum that works remotely! We just switched to eureka and it’s kind of a nightmare from a special ed perspective (but if it’s working for you/your kids share your wisdom!). We are fully remote - does anyone have any suggestions that work remotely? Easy to differentiate and navigate?

Hi SpEd Teachers, is anyone else facing EXTREME staff shortages as a result of state funding? We are not able to meet my students' IEP requirements (not even close) due to not enough paraprofessionals and the district flat out refusing to hire more. I've lost 70+ hrs/week of para hours over the past few years and my students are really suffering. This leaves our district open to lawsuits, but the real problem is the state's education budget. What can we do?? This isn't going to fix itself.

I have a parent that I questioning the accommodations we are providing to her daughter. Accommodations can be amended but the student does not do any work at home. Help!

I have been working in special education for 12 years ; 8 years at the high school level and 4 years at the middle school level. I love my kids and what I do but I am seriously burnt out with all of the extra work that we have to do in addition to teaching. I want to be a general education 1st or 2nd grade teacher in hopes of avoiding the mountain of paperwork and the physical labor of assisting large students with daily personal care activities. What are the pros and cons of working in Gen Ed?

I have been teaching students with special needs for 21 years now. The class size used to be 12:1. Now it’s 15:1, but you can have up to 18 students with the variance. Now my Principal said that you can have up to 19 students!!!! Is anyone else noticing that the self contained class is getting larger?

Hello Everyone,
I’m was trying to help some of our secondary RSP teachers determine what they can do with their student’s during LAB/ Study Skills Class.
Some of my ideas included:
Work on incomplete classwork or homework, work on goals, study for test and quizzes, work on projects, goal setting for the next semester, organize google classroom assignments or practice for the state exams. If they are other ideas I would love to hear them! Thanks everyone

I am still teaching remotely and very worried about returning to school. My students are young students with autism and masks and distancing are not possible.

While de-escalating a situation or dealing with a child having an outburst I tend to notice outside coworkers coming in my room to offer help or just check in. I find this doesn’t help it actually makes the situation worse. Would it be rude of me to send out an email asking them not to interrupt since it can make the situation work. I know most of the time it’s cause they are being nosy.

IEP, 504, and those without internet will return in-person next week while rest of students remain remote. Regular Ed teachers may have students (mild Learning Disabled kiddos) in their room while teaching. They are saying it’s a liability issue if they have one student in the room with them, even though teaching other via Zoom. Thoughts? Anyone else experiencing this?

I work with kiddos that have multiple disabilities K-6. Our district is doing distance learning. Yup, computer learning for students who may or may not be able to see, walk or talk. I was wondering what other teachers are doing for their kids who are in this situation?

I went to my GE science teachers and asked for a comprehensive list of what is taught in biology in our GE classes. My goal is to take the main ideas and bring the concepts down to the level of my students to keep them moving at a similar rate. I was told they do not feel they can share that with me because we do not have our class assignments for next year yet.

SSSOOOO...can anyone help me come up with a Biology Concept list?
