KT Have not attending the training in NC. Have had some training in the principals. I like it. I think it really helps our students with autism to understand what they need to do, how much, when done and what to do next. We have less behaviors when we use this method. The down side is the amount of time it takes to create the materials.

delivery of services

by lrogalla

Dec 19, 2014

Our numbers are rising which is causing our reading and math groups to rise. We have a resource room where we service our kids throughout the day. I guess you would call it a pull-out program. Since numbers are getting higher, we are looking at different ways that other schools service their special ed kids. What model is used in your school? We ha...See More

Examples of poor administration.

Beth Special Needs We serve kids on the full continuum. We have some children who are served in a co-taught inclusion model in the gen ed room, some are pulled aside and served in a small group of sped and non-sped kids in the gen ed room. Some are pulled out in a mixed group, some are pulled out with only other sped kids. Some get a combination of those services de...See More

Beth Special Needs? Have you done an FBA on him. I would start there. That will help you narrow down behaviors to focus on in order of priority. I always choose safety issues first. Then develop and continue to refine a BIP. The process is time consuming, but can be worth it if you have a good team and good data.
