Special Ed Teacher

One school uses a "pull-out" program where students with learning disabilities leave the regular classroom to receive instruction in the resource room.  The other school uses a "push-in" program where the students stay in the regular classroom and the special education teacher or paraprofessional works with them there. I would choose the "pull-out" program. I believe there is quality resources and training in this program that can be very valuable to those in it. I believe that the time in the regular classroom is valuable as well, but I wouldn't want to get rid of that time in the resource room, either.
