Special Educators Resource Room Podcast: Real Talk for Special Education Teachers

140. Back-to-School Edition – Real Answers to Real Teacher Questions

Jennifer DeBrosse

Back-to-school season brings excitement… and overwhelm. In this episode, I’m answering five real questions from special educators about what actually matters during those first few weeks. From what to prioritize in Week 1, to how to support (and redirect) a para, to what to do when you feel completely behind—this Q&A is all about practical advice and a little perspective.

 If you're feeling the pressure to do it all, this episode is your reminder that progress doesn’t have to be perfect. Take what works, leave the rest, and know that you're not alone.
