“Trick them into learning”.. love that and so true! I consider myself an education detective in my role as a high school resource teacher.. always letting the clues fall in place to let me know what’s the key to unlocking the students inner potential. A lot of the times it feels like tricking the kids into learning and then you watch them take off and it never gets old

This should be required to watch for not just in training SPED teachers but for all in training teachers— it was that helpful! I changed professions from being an attorney to being a one on one teacher and recently changed jobs so that I now work with SPED students 80% of the time. Time to reflect is key. “Monitor and adjust” constantly. Also, the long view is REALLY important — it is imperative to know your eventual destination when planning the route. Thank you!

I've been teaching in early childhood for 10 years. I'm SPED certified also. My district has never sent me to trainings to deal with children with autism. It is a learn as you go with every child and some help from our school counselor. I have two children in my room now with high functioning autism that are quite challenging!

I'm now going into year 5 I wish I had this video year ago lol. I had to learn the hard way about the world of special education. I think also having a great sped team makes all the difference to learn from. 😊 my team now is the best I ever had.

[tgallagher]

This was fantastic advice. Thank you! I love your honesty that things won’t be perfect.

[annemariemiguel]

I am going to build in Self-Reflection this year to my day. Like the realism. In my 4th year, it was just as hard. Fingers crossed for year 5.

[sharthsharathbabu]

It is really helpful this conversation thank you very much madam

[bluesskywoman]

Excellent advice for us SPED teachers! Many thanks and blessings

[cinma]

I passed my ec-12 sped and I just submitted my Edtpa

And I am so glad I am watching your video. I am doing my clinical and it’s a lot of balancing and my mentor teacher says the same things your both mentioning. He has 16 years of sped experience and he is excellent.
I am glad to hear the same things he does is what has worked for you too. And that it will be ok when I get my own classroom.
I am so nervous bc I hear horror stories about the so much paperwork and meetings.

this interview is really good.... ❤❤❤❤

I am happy to have come across your video.
I just got hired as a guest teacher for an elementary school in Florida to teach VPK VE. I am not a fully certified teacher. I do have a certification in ESE. I am also not VPK endorsed I’m actually not sure what they’re going to do with me so I’m not out of compliance lol.
I will have this job for the entire school year.
I have however already taught kindergarten one year last year but under a temporary contract…

I will be watching as many videos as I can so I can learn as much as I can on how to write IEPs since it’s been years I did training on that through my alternative cert program.

The magic eraser tip just blew my mind. I have a gigantic box of boards and I could NOT understand why they were all scratched! 🤦‍♀️😆 My youngest took a sharpie to a bunch of them and magic eraser is my go-to 🤣

Love your videos!!!

[kimwatson]

Thank you for this❤ I'm a para does ms Pat have a channel by chance??

[StaceySummers-ke]

I think this video was very informative.

[sharthsharathbabu]

It is it is expensive hearing for every experience teacher thank you very much

[frana.]

We are only allowed to spend our dollars in approved Teacher stores, which are always expensive.

Sometimes students do not function the same as a classroom, when going out to another environment can be because of the dependency of routine, structured prompted environment.
