On a professional level, I feel like there could be more I could be doing, and so I actually asked my lead teacher why we do what we do, in the way we do it, last week. She called me into a meeting with the principal. I sent a series a questions as to our instructional methodology via email and we went down the list. I had a positive experience. I kept insisting that I didnt want to be a bad guy and didnt want to cause trouble, I just wanted to know why we do what we do, and why we can't do some things differently. The meeting was productive. I had essentially no prior experience with IEPs and the like prior to this year- I had one student with an IEP, and it was to allow him to do his math on a calculator. I taught freshmen english, so his accomodation didn't apply.
