In special ed, we freaken love a crazy acronym. Our land of alphabet soup is filled with IEPs, the LRE, ADHD, LD, CCSS. I mean, seriously people. It’s excessive, but I am gonna jump in on the fun and give this week’s posts another acronym. This week, we are all about BTSE – Back to School Essentials. Whether you have one day or two weeks until those kiddos coming trampling through your doorway, it’s time to get ready. It is go time. This is not a drill.
Back to school season is upon us.
My first BTSE has the term MUST-HAVE in its title so you know it’s good. This resource shot up to my bestsellers almost immediately. My Must-Have Forms & Templates is a mammoth pack containing over 50 forms, templates, and sample letters. If you are concerned you may lose track of something important in the chaos of the first few days – this is the product for you.
Get organized and stay organized! Organization is the KEY to running a successful classroom. Let this packet of forms and templates get you ready to tackle the new school year. These sheets will organize your IEP data, parent communication, lesson plans, sub plans, and more! The great thing about this packet is you can edit! I hate when I buy a product and I want to tweak a tiny thing and can’t. I know you all are as big of perfectionists as I am 🙂 To make your life easy – all of these forms can be edited and customized to fit the exact needs of your classroom. Included in this packet are both the PDF and Word versions of all forms.
Let’s get visual: 
If that mass amount of pictures collages didn’t clearly elaborate – this packet is super jam packed. I am pretty excited myself to have all of these forms in one place. I am planning on printing them out and organizing them in a binder (I know – shocking, I love binders). It’ll make my life way easier knowing I won’t be forgetting anything super important. Check out the product description on TpT for a fill list of every form 🙂
