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), […]

Free Lesson: Do’s and Don’ts of Workplace Grooming Slideshow Templates
My students are focused on all things work-related between now and the end of March. We had some discussions in class yesterday about skills we wanted to make sure we addressed, and students and cadets wanted to be sure we talked about looking professional (good grooming) in the workplace. I see lots of teachers assigning […]
Вопросы, которые вы просто не задаете
After enjoying nearly two weeks of Winter Break spent wearing sweatpants and not brushing my hair, my colleagues and I were back at work today. We didn’t have students today, which is probably the best choice in terms of their safety. A bunch of cheese-bloated, middle-aged teachers coming in fresh off half a month of […]
Сенсорное заземление БИНГО
Новый, БЕСПЛАТНЫЙ урок на enraged2engaged.com, E2E Сенсорное заземление БИНГО! После того, как несколько недель назад у одного из наших функциональных детей с РАС случился ужасный срыв в классе., группа (модели-сверстники и студенты) единогласно проголосовали за блок навыков совладания для следующего цикла уроков. Новый партнер по обучению Крис, курсанты (сверстники), and I have […]
“У меня есть рубрика для этого!”
Teachers asked, and I listened. They asked for easy-to-use rubrics for tracking the SECD standards aligned to each lesson in the E2E curriculum…and I made them! Frankly, this has been a gap in my curriculum that I’m ecstatic to have finally filled. It was a ton of work to go through the standards from the […]
Brand New E2E Game Available on TpT!
I wrote a new game! E2E Awk-Words on TeachersPayTeachers I have seriously been trying to think of a good game to call Awk-Words for the past two years. This is the culmination of a dream. E2E Awk-Words is a printable card game that will encourage students to roleplay and discuss normative (and not-normative) responses to common […]
Великая пуба подпапок!
It’s easy to forget that cold and flu season is upon us when it’s still 95 degrees outside. Nevertheless, winter is coming and, along with it, the dreaded Teacher Absence. In my early teaching years, my sub folder sucked. I filled out the single sheet that the office lady gave me at pre-service training, then […]
The Teacher Relationship Myth
There have recently been two suicides at a high school in my community. It’s been as awful as you think. I’ll spare you the details, because the details won’t do a damned thing to bring back those kids, ease their families’ hurt, or heal the gaping wound left by the loss of those kids for […]
Stepping Away
I’ve been avoiding writing a blog entry for a while now. Honestly? It’s because I wasn’t sure what to say. I have stepped away from behavior. That’s right, I applied for an in-district transfer last year, left the program for EBD I helped to start, а также (for the first time in more than 13 years) […]
All-New Game: E2E Получить мою козу
I’ve written my first game specifically designed with my current class of functional high school students in mind. I feel relieved to have revived my lesson-planning mojo. The vibe of a functional class is SO DIFFERENT from the high functioning kids with EBD and ASD I’ve taught for so many years. I’m astonished by the […]
