Two Weeks Until School Starts

For me at least, there is two weeks until school starts, although I know many of you have already started back and many of you have a week or so longer than that. For the first time in many years I will be starting in a new job, with all new students, new staff, new boss and so on.

Here is what I have been doing to prepare:

• reading IEPs and converting into IEPs at a Glance (aka One Page IEPs)
• creating embedded skills charts for recurring lessons (morning meeting, cooking, etc)
• making FISH (Family Involvement Starts Here) Notebooks (similar to MOOSE Notebooks) (which contain the school calendar, contact info, and where I put my daily correspondence to families.)
• reviewing and adapting Unique Curriculum's September Unit

What are you doing to prepare?
