It is official, my favorite time of the year is here. Cool temperatures, football on the TV, and my wonderful husband is making chili for supper! So, this will be short and sweet...
Since I am a special education teacher I spend a quite a bit of time on behavior and behavior management. In addition, part of the research I am doing this year focuses on behavior so I made a different behavior chart to use this school year to help me keep track of the behaviors my students are displaying throughout the school day and the consequences to their behaviors.
Please feel free to use this chart...Student Behavior Log

Question...
We are about to finish our second week of school (our first FULL week) and life is crazy!
I have a question for special education teachers out there and/or general education teachers...
I would like to know how other special education teachers maintain continuous communication with the teachers that they work with and with parents? I just have not found a system that I like yet to make sure everyone is always on the same page.
I am working with less teachers this year than I have in the past so it is somewhat easier to constantly check-in with these teachers but I guess I am wondering what kind of systems (that have worked) that other people are using out there.
As far as with the parents...my students are mostly 4th graders so they need to begin to be accountable for themselves and be able to bring things back and forth to school but there is not always that follow through with home to school. How do you maintain communication with parents, make sure the students are organized, and not have to run around like a chicken with your head cut off at the end of the school day writing in every student's agenda or home-school notebook.
I am open to any suggestions...just wondering what everyone else does. Communication is one of the most important aspects of my day to day job and I feel it needs to be improved...

Parent Communication Log
Here is the Parent Communication Log I plan on using this school year. Since I contact parents a lot throughout the school year I have a different log for each student that will all be kept in the same binder with their Student Contact Sheet. Please feel free to download this Log, just follow my blog! Thanks
