119: Collaborating with Your Sped with Ashley Lutz
Let’s talk about special education! As SLPs, many of us work closely with special education teachers. Collaboration is an important part of helping students reach their goals. Sometimes that’s easier said than done though. There is a lot that goes into each role, and it can be easy to lose sight of that and get frustrated when things don’t go as planned. The key is to come up with a strategy that works for you and your SPED teacher. In this episode of SLP Coffee Talk, I sat down with a special education teacher, Ashley Lutz, to talk about things like working collaboratively, how SPED views speech therapy, and so much more. Ashley has been working in Special Education for 10 years. She was a middle school self-contained teacher for 8 years working with students with intellectual disabilities. She just began her third year as a special education inclusion teacher in an elementary setting. If you are ready to ditch the overwhelm and frustration when it comes to collaborating with the SPED teacher and focusing on your students' needs, you don’t want to miss this episode because Ashley is sharing her top tips for making that happen.
