About the store
I try to create activities that contain some kind of meaning or purpose related to real life. I've found that keeping things engaging and relevant is a major key to student buy-in, and thus, student success. A lot of my activities are also based on life experience growing up with family in the special needs community. I look at activities from not only the teacher side (what concepts will be taught) but the family side (how will this make a difference to their future) and the student side (what might they find interesting or boring).

Behavior Data Collection Form

Created by
Kniffin Store
Fully editable and printable. This currently address out of seat, calling out, and overall behavior. It has spaces for tallies and ratings. I give this to core teachers as an easy tool to gather data on students with behavior difficulties. The feedback I've received from them is that it is easy to use and they just keep it beside them while they're teaching. This gives great numerical data for writing functional behavior assessments and behavior intervention plans.

Experience

I try to create activities that contain some kind of meaning or purpose related to real life. I've found that keeping things engaging and relevant is a major key to student buy-in, and thus, student success. A lot of my activities are also based on life experience growing up with family in the special needs community. I look at activities from not only the teacher side (what concepts will be taught) but the family side (how will this make a difference to their future) and the student side (what might they find interesting or boring).

Teaching style

In teaching EC students, I have found the need for many hands-on activities. I can't stand doing all worksheets and formal notes. We have to get down and dirty with math.

My own education history

I have a Bachelor's in Special Education with a concentration in Math.
