If you’re a special educator, then IEPs are probably not your favorite topic, but I’ll let you in on a secret. I kind of like them. I don’t like the marathons or the arguments, or even writing them. But I can’t imagine trying to work with our students without them and that’s one reason it’s so important we devote time to developing IEPs with your team.
When I talk about them in this context, I’m referring to both the documents and the meetings because we need them both.
Many times, it feels like IEPs drive our lives, and in a sense they do. They’re at the heart of special educational services and need to be living, breathing processes that have meaning and purpose. So you have to spend time and attention on both the document and the process by which you get there.
To help, today kicks off a new, short series of episodes about IEPs and how to make sure yours live up to what you need them to be.
