*UPDATED APRIL 28TH, 2019*(I originally created this Teacher Input Questionnaire in 2014. Since then, I have included a Google Form and I have been tweaking it for my classroom use and I am finally uploading the updated form for all of you!)Preparing for an IEP report or any other evaluation report can be quite stressful and incredibly time consuming.

Preparing for an IEP report or any other evaluation report can be quite stressful and incredibly time consuming. Although I can’t make it easier for you – trust me I wish I could :), I can at least provide you with a little bit of help when having to ask for parent input! In my first few years of teaching, I realized that asking for input from my students’ parents/guardians was at times difficult. Sometimes I would get too much information, and other times I wouldn’t get enough at all. I crea

All of my input questionnaires for IEPs and Evaluation Reports in one spot! Google Forms are included with each input questionnaire. If you are new to using Google Forms I have provided easy to follow Google Form instructions. The time it takes to create and set-up a Google Form (and it's collection spreadsheet) I have done for you! ...because let's be real, as teachers we need all the extra time we can get. You will be receiving these as a secured PDF and as a Google Form.If you have any quest

12/3/2020: Updated with links to Google SlideMy middle school/high school students are just as excited about Christmas as the students I had when I taught in an elementary. They all love the Christmas hoopla leading up until their break! Reindeer Games are actives for middle school students+ to enjoy! The activities are similar to ones they loved completing in elementary school, but a little more challenging and age appropriate... because my students don't believe they are kids anymore;) What'

*HUGE UPDATE: May 2nd, 2019*I'm not quite convinced that many high school students know exactly what they want to do after high school graduation, let alone students of the middle school age. Gathering IEP transition information for a student just turning 14, or even of actual transition age, can be difficult. Luckily, this survey helps with just that! This Student Transition Input Questionnaire is an IEP transition survey - for students of transition age. It is an informal survey/input questi

Once students turn 14 they are invited to their IEP meeting and take on more of an active/vocal role. They also start planning for their life after high school - otherwise known as transition. However, when I was an elementary learning support teacher, I felt like my students should have a voice in their IEP planning process, as well as start thinking about what they want to do/become when they are older. Yes, I did this even with third graders. Since my time as a learning support elementary t

UPDATED 5/1/2020: Now includes link to Google Slides for digital use. I completely swoon over anchor charts I see teachers have in their classroom. It's like teacher artwork - haha, but they just aren't practical in my learning support classroom. Sure, I leave up charts and posters that benefit, in some way or another, all students who come to my learning support classroom, but sometimes I need for each of my students to have what anchor charts offer. At the beginning of this school year, I sta

Having to transition (rather quickly) to teaching remotely has had me feeling unorganized. I do not have all of my binders and important information sheets with me, while I am at home, as I plan for IEP meetings and data collect at home. Instead of re-printing everything, I decided to turn my Progress Monitoring Data Collection Sheets into an interactive PDF file, that I can use on my iPad. This has been saving me from re-printing everything, as well as having to create an entirely new filing

In my high school special education classroom, I'm always trying to come up with new ways to show students how skills being taught in the classroom can also be applied to life after graduation. Being able to answer math problems involving basic math skills, that require solving for your gross pay, deductions, and net pay, is an important skill to know. I created 25 easy to read, task cards for students to practice these math skills - in "real world" scenarios. These task cards are perfect for
