Often, general education teachers feel unprepared and disconnected from the IEP process, especially at meetings. Let's explore three strategies to involve general education teachers more effectively in the IEP process without overwhelming them. Strategy 1: Ensure that the IEP's "supports for school personnel" section is checked and filled out inside the IEP paperwork. This box is frequently overlooked in IEPs or not used to its maximum potential. Strategy 2: Engage general education teachers in simple data collection. This doesn't require intensive one-on-one time but can be as straightforward as tracking skills using discreet methods. This involvement helps teachers feel a sense of ownership over the outcomes. Strategy 3: Include general education teachers in goal-setting for the IEP. Their perspective can provide valuable insights into the skills necessary for the student's current and future school environments, which leads to fostering more engagement and ownership.
