16. DIFFERENTIATION WORKS

17. PROS AND CONS OF INSTRUCTION With the introduction of the Common Core Georgia Performance Standards, the growing trend for students with special needs and English Language Learners is to push them into the traditional classroom setting.

18. GOODBYE RESOURCE ROOM We are now seeing less and less of the pullout practices of taking students into a self contained resource room with their specials teachers.

19. COMMON THOUGHTS AND PRACTICES The common thought is that the traditional model fails to provide students an education in the least restrictive environment.

20. WHOSE STUDENTS ARE THEY? Too many times, general education teachers expect the ELL or Special Education teachers to take care of their kids.

21. THE IDEAL LEARNER The problem with much of todays curriculum is that we are basing it on the ideal average student and truthfully cognitive neuroscience says there is no such student.

22. UNDERSERVING OUR STUDENTS English Language Learners, or students with special needs, can be sidelined by our more complex common core curriculum, which requires more of a depth of knowledge, if the proper techniques are not used.

23. GIFTED AND TALENTED Gifted and talented students can also be underserved by having a main stream curriculum.

27. TEAM TEACHING One of the hardest things to get used to in a team- taught classroom is how to split teaching responsibilities; that is, actual instruction of students.

28. TEAMWORK When general education classroom teachers take the time to share ideas and plan together, as well as utilize the co-teaching system in the classroom, the results will be POSITIVE!
