In my current position, I teach in small groups throughout the day to meet the needs of all of my students.
While they may be in 4,5 or 6th grade, they are significantly below grade level and need instruction at their level. This means I am teaching multiple Math, ELA, Science, and Social Studies lessons throughout the day to leveled groups. Previously, when I was teaching in a self-contained classroom my teaching styles changed from minute to minute and I would have to be flexible in my instruction methods to meet all of our students' needs. I use applied behavior analysis, direct instructions, and evidence-based methods to teach academic, life skills, hygiene, social skills, motor skills, as well as expressive and receptive language.
