Special Education for All Teachers
Special Education is well known for its wide use of acronyms such as IEP, NOREP, FBA, PBSP and more, and often used as if everyone should know what they stand for. Time will not only be spent defining these acronyms, but we will take a deeper dive at what each one truly is, and why it is important. These are legally binding documents that all teachers are expected to follow, and many times teachers are unclear of what their roles are when it comes to implementing them.
With an increase in the student population with social and emotional needs, it is also important that all new teachers are familiar with implementing behavior plans, understanding antecedents, and motivating our at-risk students. For this reason, we will spend time looking at how theses plans are developed, why they are included in an IEP, and again, the role of the general education teacher in following these plans.
The day will conclude with a focus on co-teaching, as this will most likely occur throughout their school day. We will spend time looking at what co-teaching really is, the different models of co-teaching, and making the most of the support staff in the room.

Understanding the Standards/Curriculum and Universal Design for Learning
In addition to looking at the standards, teachers will discuss different types of assessments, the importance of these assessments, and using the data to drive instruction. This will lead us into the last part of our day, as we focus on the Universal Design for Learning. Putting the use of the standards and assessments to drive our instruction, but doing so in a way that is accessible to all learners, and meets the wide variety of learning needs in the classroom.
