Some synonyms for “collaboration” are “teamwork,” “partnerships,” and “support,” which is the basis that the following site: Council for Exceptional Children (CEC) provides to help support rookie and veteran teachers.
Sheila Amato was correct when she stated in her article
"My Dirty Dozen" that her title would catch my attention and I wondered what she
could mean as I clicked on the link. The can-do-attitude she illustrates
throughout her dozen tips for rookie teachers (soon to be me) provided
some useful tips and reminders. Honestly,
it is one thing to learn about educational theories and best teaching
practices, but it’s nice to hear a veteran teacher who has placed those theories
into practice and seen successful results.
2. Time-Saving Guidelines for Special Educators
Helpful tips and
resources is the information this article has as it provides useful

This webpage also provided these additional
resources: Stress Reducing Strategies for
Special Education Teachers, How I Survived the Paper Snowstorm of

Teacher" mandate, while providing additional links to the following resouce
sites: National
