Re: teachers come in
I teach HS, so this may not apply to you but...
Students who qualify for extra assistance (iep/504/disability) are given the option of going to resource during their study hall. During that time they should work on all hw, study for tests, work on projects, etc. all with the help of a resource teacher or aid.
As well, if the student qualifies for extra help on tests/quizzes/state testing they may choose to take the exam in their resource room. Resource teachers do not attend classed w/the student, that job goes to an aid.
Resource teachers also test for learning disabilities in my district.
I'm a bit confused, are you a special educator?
I'm a resource teacher. Here, there are about three different models.
Full inclusion - The children are mainstreamed, but I teach one period of academic success per grade level so the students meet their IEP minutes.
Pull Out- Where the special ed teacher pulls students from class to work with them individually or in small groups in a learning lab.
Push In- Where the special ed teacher co-teaches with the general education teacher in the same classroom.
I'm still responsible for my case loads IEPs and goal progression. So have two prep periods to write IEPs and conduct assessments. Due to budget cuts, we don't have aides.
i am a special education teacher.. guess i should of mentioned it. i am fimilar with different models. i guess ny is different with the models that they have. i have experience in pushing in and self contained however, resource room is a seperate class period of students. so i was just curious of other districts resource room schedule
Hello. I've waited here for you. Everlong<3<br>
My best friend taught resource in a middle school classroom last year. In her case, she taught 4 (maybe 5) periods. All but one were actual classes that she taught. She had to come up with the curriculum on her own for both math and humanities (our district has gone to this model that combines social studies and language arts).
She really struggled with the academic portion of the class because she wasn't given an actual curriculum and relied heavily on the guidance of the other grade-level teachers to plan.
Her last class period was just a study hall. That class could get a little crazy because some kids would come with nothing to do.
And to paint the full picture, her case load was somewhere around 60 students, which made for quite a few IEP meetings and paper work days this year.
Ah, got it! GL with your interview.
