I applied to csu long beach, sonoma state, csu channel islands, Chico, Monterey state and San francisco.

I have an interview where I need to give a 5 minute lesson (k-12) special ed- suggestions?

Doctorates /PHD and how long?
Mel,
Yes , I’m a teacher.

I can remember when special needs children were not able to attend school and had to be either home schooled or the parents had to pay for a private education. I would really like the name of the law and the year it became a reality.

I just relocated to a different state and the one I came from did not offer anything but a standard diploma. We have a child with dyslexia and have been able to filter him completely out of special ed courses but from what I understand the tiered diplomas are given according to testing levels. Unfortunately [...]

I am working on a paper about it for my graduate class.
Thanks again!

Like if a home-schooled student requires the services of a specialist that would normally be provided by the school district, how would a parent see that his or her student’s needs are being met?

Would districts care that you are really comfortable working with disabled people if you don’t have a lick of teaching experience? I can’t find a teacher’s aide job, so this is what I am stuck with. Should I be worried that I am in a totally different field for now, just to pay the bills?

I need information about what they do about blindness and maybe autism and down syndrome.
