How are other resource teachers handling grades now in districts that have converted to a standards based report card? Before the general ed teacher and I would average our grades together for their overall grade. Now the district is demanding that their report card is at their grade level (not their instructional level), therefore they are getting 1's and 2's on everything because they are not on grade level. Wondering how other districts are handling this?
Also, my biggest struggle as a resource teacher is communicating with the student's general education teachers. I have always focused on their skill deficits at their instructional level and doing research based intervention to target them. I always tried to spend one day working on skills their class were working on. I have so much trouble getting the teachers to cooperate with me or let me know what is going on in their classrooms. Does anyone have any good ideas? How much time do you spend on their work in their gen ed classroom? I REFUSE to do homework!!!
