There is one answer I give to every question that references a specific behavior - whether kicking, hitting, scratching, running! Then we cover how to handle taking away preferred items, dealing with defiance and control issues, and working with parents who struggle to follow through on established boundaries within behavior plans.

Sometimes I get asked, “When should I switch from academic skills to functional skills?” This is implying that at some point in junior high or high school, we should move away from academic instruction. My answer to this question is - never. We should never move away from teaching academics because academic skills are functional skills. As our students get older, we should be teaching academics in a functional and real-world-based way.

Paraprofessionals in a special education classroom should be working as educators - providing instruction and taking academic data. Teachers should lead their team and provide training so all staff members can work collaboratively and effectively. The goal for staff training should be for the teacher to replicate herself so the paraprofessionals are working just like the teacher would.

In a highly differentiated special education classroom, it should be mostly focused on small group instruction over whole group instruction. When you do whole group instruction for students with a very wide range of skills, it will be too hard or too easy for much of the group and that’s when problem behaviors happen.

When you get into a power struggle with a student, there is no winner. You will never walk away from a power struggle having deepened rapport or trust with a student. It typically does the opposite and breaks down your relationship with the student. When it comes to the power struggle, it’s best to avoid it before it starts.

Running a self-contained classroom requires a high degree of organization. When things are a mess and disorganized, there is less instructional time and likely to be more problem behaviors. A hot mess of a classroom will lead to a hot mess with the students.

Reverse inclusion is when students from the general education come into the special education classroom for opportunities for peer modeling and creating friendships. For some students, their level of needs may not allow for inclusion in the general ed setting. Reverse inclusion is a good option for these students to receive the benefits of inclusion in a safe and comfortable setting.

Venting in the teachers’ lounge can have a negative impact on the culture and community in your school. When we only spread negative stories about our students we perpetuate often untrue stereotypes. As special education teachers, we need to be publicists for our students and spread some good PR!
