Anxiety in the Classroom-Dr. Pamela
Brezenski; ESU 13 Special Services Director & Dr. Katie Carrizales; ESU 13
Behavioral Mental Health Director
There are many different kinds of anxiety, which is one of
the reasons it can be hard to detect in the classroom. This session will
explore the neurological component of anxiety in the classroom, teach you how
to identify it, and offer practical strategies to help you support students in
your classrooms.
11:30-12:30 Co-Teaching
in Real Life- Erin Pfister, Special Education Coordinator, Lincoln Public
Schools, Joanna Fineran
Co-teaching
benefits teachers by increasing their professional efficacy and giving teachers
opportunities to learn from each other. All students benefit socially from a co-taught classroom and students
with disabilities benefit academically, however teacher compatibility, a vague
definition of roles and time to plan are major roadblocks to effective
co-teaching. Presented by former
co-teaching partners, Erin Pfister and Joanna Fineran will share simple,
effective, concrete strategies for initiating a co-teaching relationship and
planning well to increase student achievement.
12:45-1:45 Addressing
Dyslexia within MTSS- Rhea Hochstein, Nebraska Department of Education, Special
Education Consultant, Amy Rhone, Nebraska Department of Education, Assistant Director
of Special Education
Learning
to read is one of the most essential achievements for children. However, for many students, reading is labor
intensive, frustrating, and challenging. This session will describe the characteristics of struggling readers and
students verified with learning disabilities, including dyslexia. A review of recent legislative bill 1052,
will provide a definition and information in understanding dyslexia,
assessment, misconceptions, and effective instruction. Through an MTSS framework,
this presentation will demonstrate how schools can build an evidence-based
instruction and intervention model where all students can succeed. Resources on screening, progressing monitor,
evidence-based interventions, and problem-solving will be shared.
