Interview Questions to Ask New School: General Education Teacher Edition
By Welcoming All Little Learners
ABOUT THIS PRODUCT: ⭐️ I want to congratulate you on your journey, whether you are hunting for your career or have been hired for your dream job! I have found during my time as an educator that interviews often go both ways. It is easy to feel overwhelmed, and excited but also at a loss of words when generating questions on the spot. To help you during this new chapter in your life, I wanted to provide two forms of a simple questions checklist that you can use to ask your employer or district.
THIS PRODUCT INCLUDES: This non-editable PDF checklist offers common questions by categories: School routines and procedures School-wide lesson planning and curriculums School-wide grading and assessments School supply access School district and hiring school questions School schedule School communication School classroom

Behavior Tracking Sheet for self-assessment
By Rebekah Poe Teaching
Students can complete this behavior tracker to show how well they were able to:
Follow directions
Participate
Have a positive attitude
Stay on task
Complete work
I added room for the teacher to write in how many (if any) prompts are acceptable to follow directions and stay on task. I also left room for a percentage of work that should be completed. I know often my special education students struggle to complete assignments due to lack of focus, etc. So I might put that one student needs to complete 70% of his assignment and then gradually increase it. There is space for that to be written in in the chart.
Students can choose a big smiley face, a small smiling face, and a frowning face to show how well they were able to maintain the directives. At the bottom there is room for teacher signature and comments. At the top, the student has space to write what assignment he or she is assessing.
Two sheets print per page to save paper.

Accommodation Checklist- Post-it Template
By Rebekah Poe Teaching
As a special education teacher, I use these to communicate with the general education teachers about what accommodations were given on which assessments. The post-it template allows me to print directly on to a post-it note to make it even more quick and convenient. Print a template, cover the squares with post-its, and place the paper back into the printer. The direction of the paper will vary based on the model of the printer, but for me, I put them in upside down and facing backwards.
