As September draws near, I am planning, plotting, and shopping for everything I need to get my classroom just perfect for the new school year.
A lot of changes will be taking place, one of which is an increase in class size and grades served. My primary class will cover k-3. I will be keepiing my second graders for one more year!
In order to work with the larger class size I will be dividing my class into two groups for the bulk of the instruction. I will facilitate and plan while the instructional staff implements more of the instruction. This will enable me to provide in the moment trouble shooting.
I will focus this year on teaching more independence in the leisure skill areas for the students with more severe needs, and more independence in seat work for the students who are on track to transition to lesser restrictive environments.
