@JayZonday @RutgersAltRoute How amazing! I love this! Special ed students need structure! It is so important! #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@mar5729_ @RutgersAltRoute Agreed. At our school we utilize “Patriot points”. The more points they have, the less opportunities they have. They may not be allowed to be in clubs, attend events or field trips and good behavior can get points removed from their account. Its beneficial! #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@MrJackson829 @RutgersAltRoute Agreed. PLCs are important and are great for reviewing these procedures. #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@mar5729_ @RutgersAltRoute Asking for their feedback is just as important as giving it. Students should feel confident to come talk to you about any problems they’re enduring. #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@Kafkaesque83 @RutgersAltRoute I also utilize this after each module and marking perod. It helps us create short and long term plans together which is extremely beneficial. #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@Principal_H @RutgersAltRoute Based on their age, I agree that they should be involved in the decision making process. However it should be based off age and grade level. #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@TestB88 @RutgersAltRoute I agree that partner work is vital. I love my self-checking assignments online for the same reasons. #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@MsMalinowsky @RutgersAltRoute I also do this through daily slides! My students know exactly what to expect and it is apart of our daily routine! #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@AlexandriaLynn_ @RutgersAltRoute I use daily slides every day so that my students know their expectations and our schedule for the day. The “to do list” is always on the slide for students to utilize. #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@CoachLazicky @RutgersAltRoute Agreed. I also did this in my classroom. The seating chart is constantly changing to be beneficial and productive for us. #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@Kafkaesque83 @RutgersAltRoute We keep a bucket full for my over stimulated students! They love it! It does also help prevent some stimulation between lessons and during down time for my students who need it. #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@mar5729_ @RutgersAltRoute Agreed. I allow students a toy only after they have finished their work or after they have hit a certain “checkmark” in their work. If they reach it and become distracted, I threaten to take the fidget toy away and do so if needed. #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@dave_lockhart @RutgersAltRoute Set class expectations early. If students are not being quiet, keep them for detention. You can minimize their participation points for the week. Set your expectations high and back them up with discipline. #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@joey_gregory @RutgersAltRoute Reach out to other teachers for guidance. Any modifications can be beneficial. Highlighting directions, word banks, less options for multiple choice questions and formula sheets or open-note quizzes are all beneficial. #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@modthryth_ @RutgersAltRoute Utilizing the “buddy” system can be extremely beneficial. I find that a lot of my lower level students thrive when a more advanced student sits and works nearby them. #TeacherEd #SpecialEd

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@KevinMaphis @RutgersAltRoute My school doesn’t utilized weighted assignments so we have to weigh them manually. This helps tremendously for my students! #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@rubae_ @RutgersAltRoute I agree! I allow corrections on my quizzes for half credit! For tests they are allowed one retake (but only after attending 1 extra help session). #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@TaitLiza @RutgersAltRoute Agreed. Some of my assignments are graded upon completion while others are graded based on accuracy. #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@elmichi89 @RutgersAltRoute I love doing this through benchmarks as well our weekly multiplication blitz. Students can track their progress which helps boost their confidence. #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset

[kriseng23 @justthi04470445]

@RutgersAltRoute Feedback is so important. Especially in math as students need to know if they are completing work incorrectly. I love using self-checking assignments online. As well as pixel art assignments. #TeacherEd #GrowthMindset
