Effective Practices for Students with Significant Cognitive Disabilities
Classroom Organization, Schedules & Positive Behavior Supports




Students with significant cognitive disabilities have needs that vary greatly from a traditional classroom in instruction, assessments, schedules, and classroom arrangement because of the emphasis on customizing learning for each individual.  

This course highlights best practices to facilitate learning for students with the most complex needs using the Texas SPED Support Rubric of Effective Practices.  Attendees will engage in reflection of their current practices and plan for program growth.  The rubric also has an administrator companion guide connecting to T-TESS dimensions which provides "look -fors" when evaluating teachers of students with complex needs.

The session will provide insight and resources on classroom organization, schedules and positive behavior supports to promote a healthy classroom climate.  Attendees will review how classroom layout and organization of materials enhances a positive instructional environment.  In addition, we will explore different types of schedules used to provide structure for students with complex needs that support all stakeholders.
