- Case managing and managing others, i.e., paraeducators, aides
- Differentiating lesson plans with general education teachers
- Legal and confidentiality concerns when working with students and families/caregivers
- Conflict resolution among students and staff
- Being involved beyond the classroom
- Advocacy and mentoring students, families, and other colleagues
- Lifelong learning and staying current on educational trends and legislation for special education
- Any additional roles and responsibilities your mentor describes
Use any remaining field experience hours to assist the mentor teacher in providing instruction and support to the class.
After the discussion with your mentor, complete a 500-750 word reflection based on your findings. Discuss any new insights, areas of concerns, and what you feel you need to know more about as you complete your studies.
