Students who get in their own way (not by choice)...I spent over an hour yesterday (with lots of remote learning interruptions) trying to help a student write a few sentences. We kept going over what to write and then I’d tell him to write it and he’d meltdown that he didn’t know what to write. I eventually had to scribe for him and give very scaffolded sentence starters just to get through it (and basically gave him the answer). I did NOT handle it right, but I’m not sure what to do instead.

Is there a way he can use google docs and text to speech? He can say what he wants then might have edit punctuation and or spelling if speech isn’t clear. Then if needed to practice fine motor or handwriting skills he/she can make a final copy to turn in by copying from the document on to paper.

I think the only place you went left is in taking so much time before you scribed. If the intention of your assignment was to get his thoughts documented, you both were successful when he verbally did that. If the meltdown had to do with writing anxiety- looking at that blank page and freaking out - you can continue to support him with sentence frames, sentence starters, etc, to build up his confidence, while, also reducing the use of those supports over time. Lots of things I don’t know about the student and his skills and behavior but I hope this helps.

Interesting. Another idea is to go ahead and act as scribe during class time and have him write it using the already written version as a model...so it can be a little punitive from his perspective but it’s also supported practice. Then, you can act as scribe leaving out key terms and have him fill in one key concept or whatever is appropriate and then become more demanding (increase rigor) by increasing what he has to write or fill in over time.

Google docs built in mic in the tools tab is a great tool. Your student talks with You’s out content and it will type it up.

I am a middle school resource teacher. I have a few students with dyslexia. Handwritten work causes tears. Google Docs has really helped. It was difficult for some students to learn how to use it but after they learn by seeing me model it in Google Meet they get it down with practice. It’s helped with their main class work as well.

Hi folks,
I have 2 offers and both companies. Both are offering remote positions
- Ormae - 17L fixed + 1variable
- Swiftwin (acquired by Concord) - 19 Fixed

There are only a few reviews on glassdoor and abitionbox to consider them authentic (maybe fake reviews).

Does anyone have any idea about these companies? Or what do you suggest.

Additional Posts in Special Education Teachers

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.
