Hello Blogging Specials Teachers!

I am an elementary visual arts teacher or better known as a “specials” teacher in multiple schools. Being a “specials” teacher is itself a daunting task, let alone being a “specials” teacher in multiple schools that all have some major behavior issues. The largest problem is only seeing students once a week for thirty to sixty minutes while trying to deal with the behaviors that students bring into the art room with them from some other time and/or place. This includes but is not limited to yelling out, name calling, back talking, being rude and disrespectful to teacher and other students, bullying and even fighting. I am looking forward to sharing information that I had researched and sharing and hearing about ideas that work well in the specials classrooms. Let’s share ideas!!
