    5 Key Characteristics of a Strong Classroom Schedule for the IEP [Getting Ready for BTS]

    Today, I’m focusing on setting up the classroom schedule for the IEP. To me, the schedule is the most important and pivotal element of classroom design. It drives the other pieces of the classroom, tells me what the physical space will look like, and is based on the teaching implementation plan. Once the TIP is completed, it’s easier to see what activities are going into the schedule, and once the schedule is complete, the other pieces start falling into place. So, in this episode, I talk about the characteristics of a strong schedule. 02:49​ - High levels of engagement with instruction and interaction 06:07 - Tying each activity to specific goals and objections for each student 07:11 - Quickly moving daily pace and engaging students 10:34 - Integrating each student’s goals and objections and your curriculum Show Notes: http://autismclassroomresources.com/episode81 Resources: Join the Autism Classroom Resources' Free Resource Library Get more information about the Special Educator AcademyJoin the Free Facebook Group If you're enjoying this podcast, could you please take a quick moment to leave your review on Apple Podcasts?
