I was at Easter Seals Lilly Academy this week which consisted of three teachers. There was no occupational therapist or any other therapist at the facility.

Easter Seals School was a school for children with special…

Teachers need to work together in their grade level to understand where they envision taking their students with the curriculum and standards and materials needed for them to be successful. I got to…

What did the assessment data reveal about the learning of all students? The data that was received over the course of the three lessons allowed me to see…

Being a teacher was something I always thought about, but public speaking was my greatest fear, so…
