A Day In the Life of a Special Education Teacher

Emily Luedtke, a first time teacher who also runs the "School Based Community Program" at James Hubert Blake High School, admits that she doesn't have the easiestjob but she loves what she does. A typical day for her as a teacher consists of working with para-professionals and other adults to help the students in her program succeed in the school's required curriculum.This is her first year teaching and she is still learning how to address the academic and behavioral needs of her children. Luedtke is also learning about the school system and the requirements for paperwork, such as: what form is for which purpose, where it can be obtained, and who to ask. She also admits that working with other teachers is helpful because they all bounce ideas off of each other in order to be more successful in the program. Luedtke stated, "something crazy might have happened, but I almost always feel like somebody got something out of being in my class that day."
