LOVE it!! I will do it today too. I noticed the resource came originally from Stephanie Harvey - love her for nonfiction strategies.

Probably because I have a comfort level with them and also because I know that I can learn a TON from watching these talented teachers work their instructional and classroom management magic. I think any educator that is struggling with managing behaviors in their classroom, or with meeting the individual needs of each of their students, should spend some time learning from special education teachers.
