Just bought the TEACCH approach to Autism book! Has great reviews.

Help for Billy by Heather Forbes

I just started “Uniquely Human A Different Way of Seeing Autism” by Barry M. Prizant, PhD.
I’m so far very impressed with how he teaches us to view students with Autism’s complex and scary world. I highly recommend it!

Any podcasts, book recommendations on diplomacy strategies at work? My mindset is not very political, so cannot see offense coming to me when someone is crossing me over or sidelining me. Also I don’t like being nosy or overstepping but have definitely being on the receiving end. Tired of people who just keep mansplaining, interrupting thinking they are the smartest! I am a polite person, or at least I think I try to be respectful of all. But at the same time I don’t want to be playing victim.

Does anyone else have the problem that their curriculum does not meet the standards or goals and is either too hard or too easy. I spend so much money buying lessons off of TPT, buying books or spending all weekend writing my own for 5 subjects. I’m exhausted.

I keep being told what I have to do, but no one will show me how to do it. Be very careful how you word IEP’s without being given. The wording. I have been here 2 years as an intern. Now, with 3 weeks to go, I find out the name of the support person? I was never given training and my intern support person never met with me. Not even once! I’m not being hired back because I don’t know how to do what I was never trained on.

Anyone else the last to be informed about ANYTHING at their site? I am only a second year SPED teacher and my eyes are already wide open to the fact that admin and Gen Ed teachers so often fail to inform me about important things regarding the grade levels I teach and other school events. Then I’m left scrambling to inform my students and parents of essential information, and I’m embarrassed! My aides also look at me like why don’t you know this? Aggravating.

I use to enjoy pulling together lessons using a variety of resources, and not using textbooks or ready made curriculum. I just used the standards.

My principal made a snarky comment today about some interventions not getting done.

Thoughts?
