Special Education Terms and Definitions for Families Sample
By Rebekah Poe Teaching
Use this as a quick way to review frequently used special education terms and acronyms. For a more in-depth look at each term, download my e-book Special Education Terms Made Simple available here.
Family Student Parent Contact Information Booklet
By Rebekah Poe Teaching
If you are looking for a way to make sure your students' families have all of the important information they need- from ways to contact you to the school to important dates. There's even a page where you can add a picture of your school/district calendar!
Contains editable pages for school contact, teacher contact, dates to know, and school calendar. The "Dates to Know' comes pre-designed for a special education teacher, but there is a blank "Dates to Know" page if you do not need IEP information.
Prints in black and white so you can use colorful paper to save ink (if you desire).
Check out the video preview to see it in action.

Use these cards with globe key chains available HERE
Updated to include a parent and non-parent version!
Message 1: Dear family, I know your child is your world! Let this key chain be a reminder that we are a team, and i want the best for your student- just like you do! with your help and involvement, I know this school year is going to be amazing, And I look forward to what we will accomplish!
Message 2: As a parent, I know your child is your world! Let this key chain be a reminder that we are a team, and i want the best for your student- just like you do! with your help and involvement, I know this school year is going to be amazing, And I look forward to what we will accomplish!
This gift idea is perfect for the beginning of the school year to let parents know you are a team and you value their input. It can also be given at IEP meetings. The cards print four to a sheet on 8.5x11 paper. They print in black and white to save ink, and they look great when printed on colored cardstock. Use a hole-punch to make a hole to attach the key chain to the card.
Student Reinforcement Survey & Interest Inventory
By Rebekah Poe Teaching
Use this simple survey to discover what your students preferred reinforcements are for encouraging positive behavior, to use as rewards, etc.
Behavior Data Collection for ABC Data
By Rebekah Poe Teaching
Looking for a way to learn the function of a student's behavior? I've got you covered with this Behavior Data Collection Sheet. This can be used as part of an official functional behavior analysis or as a way to learn how your students communicate their needs.
What's Included?
Why do you need this?
There is a student in your classroom who struggles to express their wants or needs in an appropriate way. You want to alleviate the problematic behavior by discovering the behavior's function so you can find an alternate replacement behavior that serves the same function in a way that is more appropriate for the classroom.

IEP Goal Writing Chart Template
By Rebekah Poe Teaching
Use this template to help you write IEP goals that are objective and measurable. Print for easy reference.
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.

Classroom Behavior Management Strategies and Interventions
By Rebekah Poe Teaching
Keep this quick reference guide for classroom behavior management strategies and interventions handy for when difficult behaviors arise in the classroom.
Print the Classroom Behavior Management Strategies and Interventions Quick Reference Guide on cardstock (laminate if preferred) and punch a hole in the top left corner. Use a binder ring to secure the pages together.
Use page 1 of quick reference guide as a way to determine an idea of the function of your student’s behavior. The box with the greatest number of checks should be considered as a possible function of the behavior. NOTE: THIS QUICK REFERENCE DOES NOT AND SHOULD NOT TAKE THE PLACE OF A FUNCTIONAL BEHAVIOR ASSESSMENT FOR SIGNIFICANT BEHAVIORS.
After determining a possible function, flip to the page of the book for that function to see a list of behavioral strategies to alleviate the negative behavior. Behavioral interventions are also suggested by function. NOTE: THESE STRATEGIES AND IDEAS FOR INTERVENTION DO NOT AND SHOULD NOT TAKE THE PLACE OF A BEHAVIOR INTERVENTION PLAN.
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.
