Whether you are using Discrete Trials, Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Intervention, or something else, there are key elements to making your instruction effective.

225. 5 Key Characteristics of a Strong Classroom Schedule for the IEP [Getting Ready for BTS] 15:00

34 weeks тому15:00

15:00

Today, I’m focusing on setting up the classroom schedule for the IEP. To me, the schedule is the most important and pivotal element of classroom design. It drives the other pieces of the classroom, tells me what the physical space will look like, and is based on the teaching implementation plan. Once the TIP is completed, it’s easier to see what activities are going into the schedule, and once the schedule is complete, the other pieces start falling into place. So, in this episode, I talk about the characteristics of a strong schedule. 02:49 - High levels of engagement with instruction and interaction 06:07 - Tying each activity to specific goals and objections for each student 07:11 - Quickly moving daily pace and engaging students 10:34 - Integrating each student’s goals and objections and your curriculum Show Notes: http://autismclassroomresources.com/episode81 Resources: Join the Autism Classroom Resources' Free Resource Library Get more information about the Special Educator Academy Join the Free Facebook Group If you're enjoying this podcast, could you please take a quick moment to leave your review on Apple Podcasts?

If you follow me on social media, you can probably tell that I love independent work systems! Social media has made sharing tasks among each other much easier compared to the days before the arrival of Pinterest and Instagram. But it also means you have access to tons of misinformation, and there's a lot of it out there when it comes to independent work systems. What is an independent work system, though? Today, I'm kicking off a new series of episodes about independent work systems by clearing up those misconceptions, defining what the system is, and discussing what it's truly designed to be. 5:32 - Defining what an independent work system is and the four questions it must answer 8:55 - Why these systems are effective tools for students 9:31 - The critical element that's often left out of independent work systems 10:58 - What the work structure in the system is designed to do for the student 11:42 - A must-have element for a student to complete the work system and the only thing it's designed to teach Show Notes: http://autismclassroomresources.com/episode113 Resources: Independent Work Systems Webinar Join the Autism Classroom Resources' Free Resource Library Get more information about the Special Educator Academy Join the Free Facebook Group If you're enjoying this podcast, could you please take a quick moment to leave your review on Apple Podcasts?

220. Choosing and Developing Effective Special Education Teaching Materials for Learners With Autism [Listener Favorite] 7:32

39 weeks тому7:32

7:32

Creating effective special education teaching materials is more important than you may think, especially for our learners with autism. Students with autism oftentimes focus on details of pictures or learning materials that you may not even notice. Being aware and intentional of the teaching materials you are using is so important in helping them learn the concepts you are trying to teach. There are certain things to keep in mind in order to create effective special education teaching materials. In this episode, I am sharing six tips for how to develop effective special education teaching materials for your learners with autism. 01:35 - Why you should be using examples that are very different from each other when introducing new concepts 02:08 - The importance of keeping your examples clear and straightforward 02:50 - Why avoiding distracting backgrounds is helpful for students 03:26 - How to avoid material overlap 04:04 - What to avoid when creating materials so students can’t just guess the correct answer 04:49 - When to start working on the generalization of a concept Show Notes: http://autismclassroomresources.com/episode183 Resources: 3 Tips for Presenting Materials in Discrete Trials: With a Freebie Join the Autism Classroom Resources' Free Resource Library Get more information about the Special Educator Academy Join the Free Facebook Group If you're enjoying this podcast, could you please take a quick moment to leave your review on Apple Podcasts?

219. Getting Started With Challenging Behavior in the Classroom [Listener Favorite] 20:31

40 weeks тому20:31

20:31

In this episode, I'm talking about the basic principles of behavior. These principles may be a review for some, but I think even behavior pros will find at least a kernel that they can use to help their team understand how behavior works (and how it doesn't). Sometimes it's unfathomable to those of us who do this all the time why others in the classroom or school just don't seem to get these ideas. To us, they may be basic principles that feel like water and air. But to others, they are the opposite of what they learned about behavior from their parenting, previous classroom teams, previous administrators or just previous experience with students. So I think they bear repeating a bit to make sure we are all on the same track.

There are many things that we need to think about when writing IEP goals. We need to look at the present level of performance, curriculum goals, and parent input. However, there are other things we should consider when we write IEP goals, regardless of when we write them during the school year. When considering what a student’s goals should be, there are questions we should be asking. There, of course, are the standard questions - Is your goal measurable? Is it clear? And is it related to the present level of performance? But there are 5 additional questions I think are key to writing better goals for your students. In this episode, I am diving into what these 5 questions are and how asking them before writing a goal will make your life easier throughout the year. 03:10 - Why it’s important to ask if a goal has been written before 05:42 - What an enabling goal is 07:05 - The importance of looking at what skills a student will need in their next environment 08:45 - Why you should be considering how you will teach the skill 12:45 - How to write goals that allow you to accurately track and measure them Show Notes: http://autismclassroomresources.com/episode216 Resources: Writing Enabling Goals for IEPs How to Conquer 5 Challenges of Meaningful IEPs Join the Autism Classroom Resources' Free Resource Library Get more information about the Special Educator Academy Join the Free Facebook Group If you're enjoying this podcast, could you please take a quick moment to leave your review on Apple Podcasts?
