    116. When an IEP Isn’t the Answer: Supporting Gen Ed Teachers with Behavior Challenges

    · Special Educators Resource Room

    Ever had a general education teacher refer a student for an IEP, hoping for a classroom aide or a removal—but deep down, you knew that wasn’t likely to happen? 🙋‍♀️

    In this episode, I’m sharing a real-life scenario where a gen ed teacher was struggling with a student’s behavior and looking for a quick fix. Instead of just saying “no” to the IEP request, I took a proactive approach to support BOTH the student and the teacher—without adding extra work to my plate.

    You’ll learn:
    ✅ How I used an ABC recording form to track behavior patterns
    ✅ The simple frequency tracker I gave the teacher (and why she loved it)
    ✅ How a social story and positive attention shifted the student’s behavior
    ✅ What the real outcome looked like (ups, downs, and progress—not perfection)
    ✅ Key takeaways to use in your own classroom when behavior challenges arise

    🎙 Mentioned in this episode:
