I just started a new job as the resource teacher for an elementary school. I am having a hard time figuring out how to balance my time and the needs of my students. I currently have 9 students on my caseload, all of them LD in reading and some in math as well. The issue I am having is that I have students in all different grades and with different specific needs and goals. I have up to 4-5 students at a time sometimes, and I am wondering what do I do with the other students while I am working one on one with another? I can give them worksheets or something, but I feel that that is wasting their valuable time that could be spent in the regular ed room. I also know that some of them are so low in reading that they will not really get much work/reading done unless I am working with them. Do any of you work in a resource room? Any advice on activities to do with them? Any help would be appreciated!
