 CEC NEWS


Happy Thursday! Here's your FREE Tool of the WeekShare on FacebookTwitterShare on LinkedinE-mail article
Take the guess-work out of grading student writing with this week's FREE tool! We have a one-page grading rubric that will help you evaluate student writing fairly and consistently. Sections of the rubric will help you rate a student's mastery of composition, style, sentences, usage, and mechanics. Use it to assign grades, apply it to drafts to guide student revisions, adapt line items for varied skill levels, and incorporate it into peer evaluations. For more great writing tips and tools like this one, check out CEC's Recipe for Writing, an engaging workbook that breaks writing instruction into 18 step-by-step lessons that make writing feel more manageable for everybody. CEC's Tool of the Week is a free resource designed to support you in your special education practice. Subscribe and it'll be automatically delivered to your inbox! Get your Tool of the Week.

This week's FREE tool is an information-packed table that describes possible student behaviors and emotions during a crisis episode with corresponding suggestions for response. The table is intended to help you manage and diminish crisis episodes while also providing prompting to learn from the incident once it is over. The table comes from CEC's Physical Restraint and Seclusion in Schools, an book that will help you see the big picture surrounding the issue of restraint and seclusion while equipping you to address violent and aggressive behaviors before they happen, making school a safer place for both you and your students.
