It’s a daunting task setting up a special education classroom or appropriately integrating students with special needs into the general education setting. Students are all so different and have a vast array of needs. Many of these learners need to be taught individually. It can seem impossible to effectively teach a group of such different students when so many of us are understaffed. In this session, learn how to organize, setup, and structure your classroom. We will discuss such topics as creating an efficient classroom schedule, the physical structure, using visuals, creating a data system, and beginning your curricular planning. Priority registration will be given to special education teachers in years 1-4, because this training is funded by a grant designed to focus on the professional development of novice special education professionals.
