OTF Teachers GateWay to Special Education

Teach Special Education 


All students can learn with the use of specific strategies that meet each student's unique learning needs. Teaching strategies can be implemented for any student who needs them, regardless of formal identification. This site serves as a collection of resources for teachers to easily access and implement with their students.

Teaching Strategies for Students with Special Needs

All students with special needs are unique. Their needs may be recognized by teacher and parent observations and/or assessment by a certified professional. Some students may have their needs formally identified as an exceptionality through an Identification Placement and Review Committee (IPRC). Regardless of the manner by which needs are determined, teachers and school teams can implement strategies as soon as a student's need is realized. It is important to document and assess the effectiveness of strategies employed and revise them in order to achieve success.

Key Special Education Practices

• Create an Inclusive & Positive Class Climate

Use Differentiated Instruction (DI)

Teachers differentiate their instruction for the whole class, small group or individual students based on content, process, environment and product for optimal achievement. Strategies and links for DI instruction can be found here.

Implement Teacher Assessment of Students' Skills

Teachers and the in-school team can assess students' skills, utilizing a variety of tools. 

Employ a Teaching Strategy

Various instructional, environmental and assessment strategies are provided for student needs, identified exceptionalities and conditions.
