Presenter: Kenneth U. Campbell Scarborough's Rope has no mention of behavior ... motivation! This should be the cornerstone of effective instruction. Beginning with behavior, we then move to word attack skills via phonics, high frequency words, story reading, and comprehension. Participants will be informed on what to look for and do while providing reading remediation or instruction.Participants will be informed on what to look for and do while providing reading remediation or instruction.

We will present two studies focused on highly effective special educators. One will examine how special educators’ instructional effectiveness is bound and shaped by their working conditions, producing very different ways of being “effective.” Another will spotlight how one teachers' agency was crucial to her effectiveness for students with low incidence disabilities. Together, these papers explore how interactions between individual beliefs and working conditions are a powerful lever for improving effectiveness.
Enhancing math instruction for students with exceptionalities requires targeted supports. This session examines diverse ESE deficiencies and their impact on learning. Through interactive discussions and hands-on activities, participants will explore research-based strategies like visual supports and manipulatives. Real-world examples will demonstrate how these methods boost engagement and achievement. Attendees will gain practical tools to scaffold instruction effectively and support ESE students in mathematics.
