You all probably dont care but does someone know a method to get back into an Instagram account? I was stupid forgot my password. I would love any assistance you can give me!
@Briar Immanuel I really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
We use a set of checklists suchas FACP(Functional Assessment Checklist for Programming),VAPS (Vocational Assessment and Programming System)...and etcetera... By the way your video is honestly useful and I learnt a lot ♥️ thank you for your selfless effort .
I love you! I am a brand new baby fetus intern SPED teacher, in my first semester in my cred program and 3rd year teaching! I have fallen down the rabbit hole with your channel and am feeling so much relief as you explain everything and I am realizing this isn't as hard as I've been making it! THANK YOU!!!
I love that you create videos with a practical approach! I agree with you that colleges lack in practical experience; especially when it comes to data collection, classroom management, and behaviors.
Thank you so much! My goal is to try and add to the conversation and give people more things to add to their classroom/studies, I found that after my two degrees I was still lacking a lot!
@@thatspecialeducator1061 I have found that as well! I've taught for over two years and am still learning the basics about classroom and behavior management!
Thanks for demonstrating a clear picture of teaching and collecting data in a consistent circle to ensure the student gain the necessary skills for them to reach their goals. I have seen multiple times where a student is given assignments to be assessed on a particular concept, yet the child has never been pre-taught the concept. I enjoy all your videos. You also have an amazing personality which is comforting as a viewer. Thanks for sharing.
I am so grateful for all you are doing to help new teachers!!! I am in love with the fact that you are freely giving us resources and tools that we can absolutely use everyday to make our lives better and to be better teachers!! I wish I had this a while ago, but am so happy to have it now. You are a beautiful soul.
Omg I am an Instructional assistant in an EC 3/4 year old separate class.The teacher has her own forms to collect data but they were confusing but watching this video I have figured out a way for myself and the other assistant to take data.Thank you so much.
You are incredible!! You are so right about not getting enough practical classroom experience. There are so many components to being a sped teacher and it is impossible to get a grasp of even half of those skills you are going to need. Your behavior background gives you a unique edge on many in our field. Setting up your class, procedures, explicit instructions with modeling for everything, etc. is so so important. I’ve been in this field for 10 yrs and I have learned some valuable things from you today and I will be putting them into practice;) Thanks!❤️❤️
First, let me say that I LOVE your channel!! I’m a resource teacher /case manager who also serves some behavioral needs of my autistic students. In regards to data collection, I use Google Forms, and it’s very helpful for tracking data over a period of time. The spreadsheet and graph options are available, and provide a quick reference while prepping for ARD meetings.
For students with autism, fear and anxiety has taken over the brain, and because they don't know they can say "I don't know" (and truthfully might not even realize what they are feeling is because they don't know), it's amazing how much improvement you can see in sitting in the uncertainty when we teach them social referencing and that it's ok not to know something. The therapies they are given teaches them to think in black and white, there is always a right answer (and they are always in the responding role), so it amplifies the anxiety they already have due to the fact they don't resolve uncertainty like other people do through social referencing, and with the individual sensory overload going on. I also have seen really great responses to checking in each morning with how are you feeling this morning? Most autistic children don't have anyone who actually asks them how they are doing. It's demands all day long. You'd be surprised how many kids will tell you they have headaches frequently, they feel tired that day or even sick...but if we don't ask, they aren't going to volunteer it. They may even need to be taught to understand how they feel and that it actually means something to the person teaching them.
As a Behavioural Specialist, data collection is critical. I use a variety of collection methods depending on the grade and the child. Such a helpful and informative video!
I’m a paper and pencil person so I document everything on charts and then I put the goal charts in a binder separated by kiddo. I also have another binder with assessments (letter, number, color and shape) separated by kiddo too. My kids have a lot of the same goals so it’s not too bad thankfully.
I just want to say thank you for making this video. I've never been taught/shown how to take data. I had to try to figure it out and have struggled with it. This is the first video of yours that I watched and will definitely be watching more. 👀 🤗
You are amazing - your energy is great and I love your practical application ideas. I am a SPED coach and this will be so great for my teachers.! THANK YOU
Thank you for sharing this!! I'm getting my SPED endorsement (after teaching gen edu) and am learning so much from you. I'm also sharing your page with my SPED program classmates!
Can you so a specific video on your daily schedule and maybe what those activities look like? specifically social skills. That would be awesome. I teach a special needs room and struggle with this.
This is so helpful! I’m so grateful your channel exists! Thank you. I’m in college now and that’s exactly what I feel I’m missing, the practical classroom stuff.
You videos are very helpful. Appreciate it. 😊 A brief segment on the levels of prompting before the examples would have been helpful. Do we always have to include the level (s) of prompting with each trial?
Hi Braelan, I just wanted to say that I really love your videos and you are amazing!!! It’s really great to see such a great education content that talks about classroom management, IEP, para professionals and other topics. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on the education initiatives you discussed in your piece. Anyways, I just want to ask a question on what probably the best thing to do to start your first day of teaching because this is my first time working in US (thanks to your videos I got an offer) and I dont know how to start. Any tips you can give? I’ll surely appreciate it. Thank you, I loved your work and I’m looking forward to watch your upcoming videos. ☺️
Thank you so much! I would say the first day doesn't have to be special. The most important thing is starting the beginning of the year focused on the routines and rules of the class. Practice them, have your expectations from day one.
Your videos are so helpful, I can't take it lol. I have been watching you almost since your beginning videos, and they get better and better. I would like to watch more videos about how to write goals, present them to the team and the whole IEP. I just want to pick your brain.
I am a first year Separate Setting Autism Teacher this video is exactly what I needed! Thank you! I came to the comments to find the links you mentioned but I'm not seeing them?
Thanks am not consistent in collecting data but am going to take it seriously. I am going to prepare the data sheet before Easter break is over and I will start up.
Hello, are you required to collect data during remote teaching. Also, are you willing to share tips on how you conduct video teaching and conferencing.
There is a big difference between digital vs. automated forms. Google Docs / Word / XL are not automated - they still require manual data entry, have limited workflow, and it's an unstructured database that you're building here. Reporting years down the road or even being able to build a student profile for the current year would be impossible with this approach to data collection. Teachers spend on avg. 49 working days per year filling out manual forms like this. For a better way, check out www.weareclevr.com. 115 districts have already switched to clevr. All of our energy and passion goes into solving this data collection problem in schools. Our wheelhouse is Special Education: IEP, Clinical Referrals, ELL Benchmarks, Literacy/Numeracy, Medical Plans, Psych Notes, Meeting Logs, Behaviour Plan, Competency-Based Report Cards. Please reach out to us.
If you think that the teachers who are watching my channel for free resources are going to put for something like this you are sorely mistaken. Also if you think that teachers who are trying to find ways to survive while working for districts that do not support them with parents, curriculum, or purchasing large subscriptions then you are not well informed. These videos are meant to to give struggling teachers options that are within their budget and control. Taking data when you are desperate and have never been given any resources is a scary place. Please stay off of my channel and out of my comments. Educators are trying to find free alternatives and ways to make it streamlined on their schools google suites. There is no magic sauce to making anything “easier”. Thank you are good night.
Let me know what systems you use!
You all probably dont care but does someone know a method to get back into an Instagram account?

Very nice video. You are so right when you point out that the teacher prep programs do not teach the practical points of data collection.

I am currently in my graduate program for Special education and this really help I am new to academic field.
Thank you! You helped me score my first job!
I’m a paper and pencil person so I document everything on charts and then I put the goal charts in a binder separated by kiddo. I also have another binder with assessments (letter, number, color and shape) separated by kiddo too. My kids have a lot of the same goals so it’s not too bad thankfully.

Glad it was helpful! Also look at using the google forms! Super helpful too!
Hi!
Do you have a how to video on using the data sheets to make a report and add into the student's progress report?
I am a first year Separate Setting Autism Teacher this video is exactly what I needed! Thank you! I came to the comments to find the links you mentioned but I'm not seeing them?
Hi! I'm glad it was helpful! The links are in the description box. The data graph and the tutorial videos.
Thank you!!!
Thanks for such great info! Love your videos ❤️🥰
Thanks am not consistent in collecting data but am going to take it seriously. I am going to prepare the data sheet before Easter break is over and I will start up.
This is great! Thank you for sharing.
Can someone explain to me “4 out of 5 trials?” I still can’t understand what the means haha
Very helpful videos. May God Bless you
Hello, are you required to collect data during remote teaching. Also, are you willing to share tips on how you conduct video teaching and conferencing.
Yes I am but we are doing much less. Using boom cards, informal anecdotes from parents, and repetition of activities
@@thatspecialeducator1061
I really enjoy the content on both social media platforms. Thanks for sharing.
Hi what do you do about grades for the grade book
This is a great video! Thank you!
What social stories do you recommend for a student who runs and refuses to work?
