I walked into my school with confidence on the first day of my junior year. I walked down to my advisory with a big, bright smile on my face grinning from ear to ear that this school year would be an excellent year. When my advisor, Ms. Taverna gave me my schedule, I noticed I had two teachers in two of my classes (AP literature and algebra two) instead of one.

the four-year-old toddler gave me when I strolled in.I didn 't see a youngster with an intellectual disability. Rather, I saw a delightful little child giving an embrace and wanting one back, with a vocabulary and speaking ability that is captivating. To proceed with the age map, Ms. Jackson acquainted me with Brittany, the child I shadowed, although I found myself shadowing every child in the house. After introducing myself and asking about her favorite color and things to do, I didn’t see a…

development and annual review? Mrs. Taylor develops her students’ IEP by how her students do in their classrooms. As a special education teacher, her main focus is on her students’ academic performance in the classroom, and she creates her lesson plans based on her students’ needs. The downside is that Mrs. Taylor feels the documentation of the each student’s IEP takes away time from the classroom. She feels that she can identify and know what her students’ need and goals based on her…
