Donner aux modèles pairs les moyens de diriger les leçons
L'un des meilleurs éléments de mon cours de compétences de vie personnelles réside dans les modèles par les pairs.. J'ai des pairs vraiment exemplaires qui dirigent des groupes en classe. Maintenant que nous essayons de naviguer dans l'apprentissage à distance, J'apprécie alors encore plus. Ce sont eux qui contactent leurs pairs via FaceTime, texte, Instagram, téléphone, et courrier. […]
E2E Leçon gratuite de la semaine: mars 18
I’m as shocked as everyone else that schools in my area have closed for the year. I know that families are feeling stressed about how to proceed with teaching at home. Schools WILL push out materials, but you may find yourself needing something to supplement it, especially if your student has an IEP. pourtant, my […]
Comment choisir les bons modèles de pairs pour votre classe de compétences sociales
J'écris souvent sur les enseignants cadets de mon programme (modèles pairs). Lors de l'enseignement des compétences sociales normatives aux adolescents, puiser dans les ressources des autres adolescents est puissant. Bien que les enfants plus jeunes puissent apprécier et rechercher l'approbation des enseignants, les adolescents (Oui, y compris les personnes handicapées mentales, ASD, ou troubles du comportement) prefer acceptance and approval from people their […]
Formulaires de collecte de données
It has long been a source of fury for me when students are moved to more restrictive settings without reliable data or without having tried every reasonable intervention to allow them to remain in the least restrictive educational setting. I’ve seen firsthand how it can turn a kid’s world upside down to be removed from […]
Adulting 101 Bootcamp
Working with secondary students who have intellectual disabilities comes with an enormous amount of pressure. I feel a strong sense of urgency. There is an immediate need to help them prepare for life after high school. Even a freshman has only four years to learn as much as possible about how to function as an […]
Nouvelle approche enseigner les habiletés sociales: Le projet piloté par classe
J'ai eu tant d'idées tourbillonnant autour des postes de blog depuis plusieurs mois que j'ai eu du mal à décider où commencer. I have been co-teaching in general education classes and helping students at my school grow and develop a personal life skills class and club. The process of seeing teens with and without […]
Putting My Money Where My Mouth Is
I’ve written and spoken a lot about the link between undesired behaviors and classwork that is too difficult for students. I’ve been following my convictions about this for the past year and am pleased to announce that I have opened a sister store on Teachers Pay Teachers, Conçu universellement. À l'heure actuelle, my focus is on reworking […]
Conçu universellement: Arrive bientôt!
I’ve been working on a new product line since January that I hope to roll out for a soft launch this summer. After finding that there are VERY few lower Lexile versions of texts in the most commonly-adopted literature books at my high school (and even FEWER that were actually engaging and of good quality), […]
Leçon gratuite: Modèles de diaporamas de gestion des espaces de travail à faire et à ne pas faire
Mes étudiants se concentrent sur tout ce qui concerne le travail d'ici la fin mars. Nous avons eu des discussions en classe hier sur les compétences que nous voulions nous assurer de traiter, et les élèves et les cadets voulaient être sûrs de parler de professionnalisme (bon toilettage) sur le lieu de travail. I see lots of teachers assigning […]
