My First Interview With A Special Education Teacher Essay

Field Questions My first interview was with a special education teacher, Marie Argenio. Ms. Argenio teaches 7th and 8th-grade students in English, reading, and writing, this is a pull-out program. Ms. Argenio also co-teachers a 10th-grade science class for one period. 1. Do you feel that co-teaching is helpful or effective for students with exceptionalities? Yes, I do feel that co-teaching can be effective. Added question: Why is it effective?

If necessary I can pull them out at any point and work with them individually. 2. How do you meet the needs of the students with IEP’s in the co-taught classrooms? In the co-taught classroom, I use specially designed instruction. For example, I will give the students word banks to use or give note skeletons. Actually, the science teacher has me give all the students the word banks because they are good study guides. I also make accommodations during tests, such as crossing out two of the multiple choice answers. Being in the science classroom, allows me to check on each students’ progress with their homework. 3.
