As a SPED teacher, your list of have-to-dos, want-to-dos, and wish-I-could-dos is a mile long at the start of every day. Even if getting to the end of that list is nothing more than a dream, there are ways to get more done. Ways to be more effective and productive as you manage your classroom. My good friend Sofie from Where I-Aut-a Be will be with us today, sharing her pro tips on building rapport with parents, data collection, and the importance of seeking out a mentor. She also shares with us her favorite resources for symbols that she uses in the classroom - and why she loves them so.  From this episode, you'll discover - or rediscover - why it's so important for SPED teachers to have a team around to support them. A team made up of parents, admin, mentors, paras, and more. Make sure you're building your team!  In this episode you will learn: How to effectively and efficiently collect data How to build rapport with parents quickly - and set boundaries  Why seeking out a mentor teacher is the most important thing you can do About Sophie's favorite classroom supply    Links and Resources SymbolStix PRIME: Special Education Symbols   Connect with Sofie Find Sofie on IG Find Sofie's Blog Sofie's TPT Store   Connect with Dawn Distance Learning Freebie My Digital Products My Distance Learning Products Find me on IG   Subscribe Are you subscribed to my podcast?
