151. IEP Work Bins: Let's Build One Together!
Ever feel like IEP implementation is a full-time job… on top of your *actual* full-time job?
In this episode, I’m breaking down my go-to system for staying on top of IEP goals without reinventing the wheel. It’s called the "IEP Work Bin"—and once you’ve got one set up, you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it.
We’ll cover:
* What to include in a student’s work bin
* How to set one up even if you didn’t write the IEP
* Why assessment tools go in *first*
* How task boxes, file folders, and work binders help reinforce and track skills
* Plus, how to refresh your bins throughout the year
You’ll walk away with a simple system that supports your students—and your sanity.
