Special Ed Teachers
I'm interviewing for my first teaching (co-teaching and self-contained) position out of college. What specific questions should I expect about special education? TYIA!
Re: Special Ed Teachers
Hi, I've been teaching SpEd for two year, and I just finished 3 months of interviews. Most of my questions were about:
*Educational Philosophy
* Behavior Management and BSP writing
*Remediation
*Checking for Understanding
* Compliance type stuff (IEP writing, organization, scenarios)
*Collaboration with other teachers
* Balancing IEP goals and content standards
*Analyzing student data
*Partnership with service providers and other members of the IEP team
GL!
Said it perfectly.
Hi!
I am very excited that you are coming into the field of special education! I have been teaching for 5 years and there is never a dull moment.
The recommendations from this post are very valid in the world of special education. Balancing IEP goals and content standards in either pull out or team taught classes is all about organization and planning. For example, I use the present levels of performance and IEP goals to help plan differientiated and remedial small group instruction in my team taught classes. I can find material on modern world history that fits both the content and reading levels of my students. I also have small groups to teach skills in writing while the students work on the writing prompts specific to the class. A recent trend in our school is create a binder with data and IEP goals for the classes and progress monitor the skills through classroom instructional activities.
I hope that was helpful.
