Super....thank you for these videos! I've been teaching for 17 years and love hearing your ideas and get inspired over and over again after watching you! Xoxo
LOVED this video - I got some good ideas! A quick note about your noun/verb activity; Many devices color-code the vocabulary. The most common color coding is the “Modified Fitzgerald Key” - with this verbs are green and nouns are orange. Your students with AAC may already see their vocab sorted in those colors, so circling in those colors might be helpful!
I'm binge watching your videos at the moment and just have to say THANK YOU for your amazing content. I'm a new resource teacher with some serious imposter syndrome and your techniques have made me wayyy more confident and effective at my job.
Loved this video! I have been a substitute teacher in classrooms with a slideshow like this and it makes live SO SO SO much better. Otherwise there is no way for me to know the routines and expectations for the class. It allows me to focus more on the students in the moment and less on wondering what I should do next with them.
Binge watching your videos for a week straight now ! I am honestly learning A LOT from you than college 💛💛💛💛💛💛 please don't get tired creating videos for sped educators like me. God bless
Your videos are so helpful and I just want to say thank you! I've taught a self-contained class at the high school level for most of my 17 years of teaching but this year I'm moving to an elementary class and need to change my mindset for the age change. You have been amazingly helpful in this process.
This was so helpful and organized. I’m still in school for special education and throughout student teaching I’ve always seen teachers fiddling through multiple slides but I love how everything is on one slide throughout the day and the visuals are excellent.
Thanks for sharing! I run my MSD classroom a lot like you do. I really appreciate your willingness to share your knowledge and experience with us. I’m a first year MSD teacher and always get great ideas from your videos!
This is an excellent layout. Thanks for sharing. Our community classes have become more digital now so it's a great idea to have a general slide deck. Take care
I love this! My supervising BCBA just helped me put together some slides for my middle schoolers rotations. However, I just found out I am transferring to elementary and I think this is amazing for me to continue to do! Love it thank you for this
You are simpy a breath of fresh air! I think your realistic and student-focused ideas are on point! I would love to embed a timer into my slides--can you share how I can do that?
You are absolutely amazing! You have inspired and taught me more than I could have ever learned in any professional development day (and even college). You are amazing! ♥️
I love your schedule. One question is how do you schedule students that are going to inclusion. I have students who miss out on Iep goals or academic content because they are in inclusion and I feel like I am always playing catch up. For instance, my inclusion students go out from 9: 20 - 10: 50 for inclusion then they come back around 12: 50 to the end of the day which ends at 3: 00 . So in the morning I try to work on iep goals with my morning students, then in the afternoon I have a phonic block at 1:00 to 1: 30, then ULS from 1: 40 - 2:00 . Then 2: 00 we back into small groups so students that were in inclusion would work on their iep goals The problem is my students are not independent, accept the ones that are pushed out into inclusion. So my students that already had IEP goals in the morning are put back into an IEP group with the students that were included. I hope that I am making sense. When your students do their iep goals are they in groups with students with similar goals?
Have you ever been an academic support teacher? If so can you explain the difference between teaching that and self contained? I want my own classroom but I know nowadays especially in my district how they are much different than they were years ago
Not related to this video but what is your opinion on chasing students that are running? I have heard from one teacher she does not chase and I have heard from another teacher that if they are younger than 6th grade you probably should follow them for safety reasons. I work with younger kids so I'm not sure what to do
Your pay should at least start at 80k yearly. You are definitely a valuable, needed and I'm sure loved teacher‼️
Super....thank you for these videos! I've been teaching for 17 years and love hearing your ideas and get inspired over and over again after watching you! Xoxo
Wonderful! Thank you so mcuh!
This is so helpful! This is my 1st year in teaching special Ed.
It makes me help on track. Thank you! Keep doing videos like this!

Best decision I ever made was our schedule slideshow. Total game changer

I'm so glad!
Thank you so much! I've been watching your videos since I started working in a self-contained class

this is also my question. I hope she will have a separate video on this matter. @ThatSpecialEducator

I haven't. But I know that there are many blog posts about the difference between the different special education classroom settings.
I love watching your videos!!! If possible could you share this slide?
Thanks for your help 👍🙂🙏
😊👍🏽
I work in an Autistic classroom and most of them don't like to sit very long. Do you ever take breaks in between your Google slides?
Do they stay in the same groups of will they rotate to work on different things with you?
Which boom card deck did you get the pizza and orange from? Thanks!
It was free on boom cards! I jsut seached half and whole
Hi do your students go to reg Edu classes for science and social studies

this was good
do you use Unique ?
No, not this year. I loke Unique, but it is a little too slow for me sometimes. .
Are you special education for elementary?
I wish you could send that to me.
Thank you
