The other day I was talking to my mother, who is a Special Education teacher at my former High School. We were discussing my classes and we started to discuss this Reading class. We went along talking about some reading strategies and she started to tell me about a science teacher that she now works with. She said it was really awesome and so much easier to work with the teacher because the science teacher was well versed in things such as reading strategies and other tools of learning that came in handy when teaching special education students. This only furthered my idea on the importance of learning new strategies, not only in reading but in other styles of teaching so that we as teachers not only help other teachers out but help our students to succeed in the classroom. My mom was really pleased that she did not have to worry as much about her students in science and helping them along as the science teacher was already laying a strong foundation for the kids to learn.
