Talk Data to Me: Data Collection in a Kindergarten Special Ed Class

Help for Special Educators

Host Lisa Goodell interviews Marisa Iannaccone, a special ed teacher in Portland. We talk about how Marisa collects data in her self contained classroom with all kindergarteners on both behavior and progress monitoring for IEP goals and how it has changed from her first year to her second as a special ed teacher. She has great advice that she shares.
She has the support of a behavior specialist and autism specialist. Together they collaborate on different strategies such as a "Go Bag."
A bonus section includes a teacher appreciation freebie and how to cope when you are feeling that teacher burnout at the end of the year.
