The First 10 Days of School - Simply Special Ed - 0 views

  • Academics Back to School Behavior Blog Fall Schedules Seasonal Simple Classroom VocabularyThe First 10 Days of School If you are anything like me, the first 10 days are a struggle. You have so many new ideas for the new year, so many things you want to implement, and you feel pressure to start on the very first day. Here’s my number one tip: DON’T. Just don’t. In special education, and more specifically the self contained setting, what our kids really need is STRUCTURE.
  • First, we walk through the routine.
  • Vocabulary is HUGE

  • Do my students know these words? of course. Especially those who have been to school before. I mainly use this lesson to model how lessons will take place, and how to socially act during lessons, and follow the expected routines.

Visual Impairment (for Teens) - Nemours KidsHealth - 0 views

  • Just as you don't think about your eye color every day, people with visual impairment don't always think about their condition every day either.

      I never thought about it this way. This likely goes for other disabilities as well. Our own personal obstacles, if you will, in life become part of a routine that we don't think about every day.
  • If a visually impaired person asks for assistance, don't hesitate to help.
    • sadielaurenn
       
      You shouldn't ever hesitate to help someone who asks for assistance, disability or not. Helping others is great, but like in the disability sensitivity video we shared it may be more harmful than helpful in some scenarios.
  • People rarely lose their eyesight during their teen years. When they do, it's usually caused by an injury like getting hit in the eye or head with a baseball or having an automobile or motorcycle accident.
    • sadielaurenn
       
      This seems unclear to me. There are many causes for visual impairment, whether they stem from an accident or are genetic. Although, they do not have to be either of these, visual impairments can happen to anyone. This portion goes on to specify conditions that may cause loss of vision after birth, which to me would mean in infancy. Loss of vision doesn't have to happen at any said time in your life.

  • Some people are completely blind, but many others have what's called legal blindness. They haven't lost their sight completely but have lost enough vision that they'd have to stand 20 feet from an object to see it as well as someone with perfect vision could from 200 feet away.

Child of Mine - 0 views

  •  
    This book is a must have for parents and teachers alike! The author dedicated this book to her daughter that has been diagnosed with ADHD. The challenges of being a child whose life is sometimes so hard and the struggles of a parent trying to make the best out of both positive and not-so-positive moments in daily life are shared. I will admit I had tears when I read it, and I feel in our profession we will deal with children just like this little girl. Most importantly, we will need to find a way to help this child have the best day possible each and every day.
