You Might Be a Special Ed Teacher if…

January 13, 2016

I hope you’ve had a great start to your year. It’s been quite the start for me, so I thought I would post this light and somewhat funny post for you all. So I bring you….
You might be a Special Ed Teacher if…
1. You hear “Student A needs his AT when
he goes to OT. Make sure to review his ETR and IEP and follow it to the letter
because IDEA says that he needs to be in his
LRE.” and you understand that!
2. You never thought you’d say “No, it is
NOT okay to lick your friend!” Or “Do NOT eat the fuzzies off of the gym mat!”
3. You have tried to take data on your own
friends, kids, spouse, you name it, you’ve tried to take data on it. 
4. You’ve ever hidden Velcro in a “safe
place” (aka your desk drawer, under the false bottom, so no one can find
it…ever.)
5. You’ve tried to analyze the function of
your family’s bad behavior.
6. You’ve spent a considerable amount of
time trying to figure out how to use positive reinforcement to get your family
to complete their household chores.
7. You can complete paperwork with your
eyes closed, hands behind your back, while standing on one foot.
8. You differentiate in your sleep.
9. You’re kind of like a superhero. You
can write IEP’s, deal
with parents, collaborate with general education teachers, relate accommodations to specials teacher,
communicate regularly with related services, and tailor lessons to individual
students in a single day!
10. Your bladder is bigger than most.
You’re a busy person. Going to the bathroom takes some time and some days you
just don’t have time for that.
11. Your heart is bigger than most also.
You love your students and are excited to watch them grow, learn, and make
progress. Sometimes the progress is as little as
being able to say hi to a friend at recess, other times it’s as huge as helping
your 3rd grader finally read!
So what makes you a Special Education
Teacher?
Leave a comment below! I’d love to hear from you.

    You know you're a special ed teacher when you take your favorite sweater out of the dryer and it has PECS stuck to it.
