![]() When I first became a special education teacher, I was caught off guard by the expectation that I, little old me, fresh out of college, was expected to train other staff members. Granted, it wasn't formal training workshops or evaluating staff, but I was definitely expected to help other adults implement behavior strategies with my students! And I struggled, HARD. I could teach students all day, but when it came to teaching staff, it just didn't come naturally to me, and I sure wasn't taught in undergrad either. And yet it didn't feel fair to ask staff to support students when they didn't have the skills to do so! I had to go out and learn about it on my own, so I could better support the adults around me too. Now, I want to share what I've learned, so you don't have to make the mistakes I made! Here's a step-by-step process to training school staff members on behavior strategies for students.

Meet JennyI'm a special education teacher turned BSEL coach. If I'm not geeking out on the research, I'm probably snuggling up on the couch with my husband and our two cats, Gibson and Binks. Categories
