I’m losing my support system. I work in an ABA program and many of my coworkers don’t understand me or the students I work with. I’m losing the only two people I felt supported by. I’m very worried

I am sorry to hear that. I understand your feelings. Are you getting replacement staff?

We are but this is the third time I’ve lost a BCBA so I am discouraged. I don’t want to get too close to them just for them to leave

Yes those positions are really hard to sustain because of what's all involved in the day to day. It is very hard. I totally get the relationship piece; 3 times is a lot because you are starting over each time. Stay positive and give this time a fair shot. Thank goodness for your summer break to rejuvenate.

Hi! I'm a GedEd Middle School ELA teacher in Texas. This year I'm teaching 3 sections of coteach ELA and it's been a nightmare. I don't know if the coteach model is just a nighmare or if it's just the way my school/district has rolled it out that is making it a nightmare. Does anyone have experience with coteach? Any help is appreciated.

I’m seeking creative ideas to teach ELA and math to a non verbal student with autism in middle school that also is not fond of using a pencil.

His receptive language is high he just lacks verbal communication. I’m also interested in promethean board activities. We use News 2 You/Unique Learning system and they are great. I’m just wanting variety.

Just wanted to share this with people who would understand. Had 4 IEP meetings last week. When the case manager asked one mother if she had any concerns she said her only concern was that her kindergarten son with autism loved me so much she was afraid of him being promoted and being out of my room. I told her not to worry, in our program I will have him for 2 more years. Boy that made me feel good.

Hi!! What does your sped model look like?We were told to teach the gen ed curriculum w/ A&M to our pull-out kids & not focus on their goals cause we would teach them within the curriculum. Thoughts?

I am looking to find out what your school does with this type of situation. I have an 18 year old student who should have graduated in 2020, but at this time only has a third of the required graduation credits for my public high school. This student has been an EBD student since 1st grade, has an IQ of 96 and has diagnoses of ADHD and Mood Disorder. This post continues on the first comment due to a character limit in this section.

Parents want to send their children back to school not only for educational purposes but also for social interactions. I do understand that many children want that interaction with their friends and teachers. But I don't think it is going to be quite as rewarding as many think with social distancing and face coverings to be safe. No high fives, pats on the back, sharing earbuds to listen to a new song, or consoling an upset friend. Even facial expressions are lost. Tough times.
