Stuttering is a common disorder addressed by speech-language pathologists in elementary schools. Although students who stutter likely receive specialized services from speech-language pathologists, other school personnel, including special and general educators, play a key role in creating supportive and positive learning environments for these students. Most special education teachers, however, receive little or no information about stuttering. Yet, because special educators collaborate and consult regularly with general educators, they are well positioned to communicate essential information about supports that can be provided. Increased understanding of stuttering and techniques for supporting students can greatly minimize the negative outcomes experienced by many students who stutter. This article provides teachers with (a) information about stuttering to improve understanding of the disorder, (b) guidance on how to provide classroom and student-level supports to create a positive learning environment for students who stutter, and (c) recommendations for collaborating with speech-language pathologists.

Text reading fluency is an important reading goal for all students. Students with a known reading disability often need systematic and evidence-based instructional supports to reach grade-level benchmarks in fluency. A recent focus on high-impact tutoring practices has given attention to the virtual or remote implementation of programs. This article provides recommendations for educators interested in setting up and implementing fluency instruction virtually to improve elementary or middle school students’ text reading fluency. Key instructional elements and other considerations for virtual implementation are discussed.

Many students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) engage in challenging behavior on a daily basis. Such behaviors can have negative impacts on students, teachers, and families. In an effort to support students with EBD, this article provides general and special education teachers with a five-step process for teaching replacement behaviors. Each step is described in detail to illustrate how it can be applied.

Applied behavior analysis (ABA), a mainstay treatment used in the education of students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), has grown in popularity in recent years. Paralleling the growth of ABA are increasing concerns regarding its inequitable treatment of vulnerable, and otherwise marginalized, populations of students. Although ABA has been shown to provide observable educational benefit, a growing number of professionals argue against its solitary use, believing it undermines respect for autonomy and social justice. In this column, a critical analysis of ABA practice is presented, through the lens of equity and the self-determined learning model of instruction. More specifically, advocacy for heightened emphasis on choice and personal agency, paired with strategies to support active learning within ABA-informed interventions, are discussed.

This article discusses developing special education teacher candidates who have a solid knowledge of scientifically aligned reading practices. Challenges in preservice teacher education are presented, including alignment of course work and clinical experiences to the robust evidence base in reading science. Key questions and resources are presented to guide teacher education in developing evidence-based reading methods courses and clinical experiences.

Students with learning disabilities in word-level reading typically require explicit, systematic, and intensive phonics intervention. Teachers’ capacity to provide effective intervention depends largely on their depth of understanding of language and their proficiency with evidence-based instructional methods. This article outlines the key knowledge and skills needed to implement effective phonics intervention and provides suggestions for methods that teacher educators can use to develop candidates’ knowledge and skills.

Children who speak with nonmainstream American English (NMAE) dialects represent a growing population in the U.S. public school system. This article provides recommendations for how teacher educators can support novice teachers in addressing the needs of NMAE speakers with or at risk for learning disabilities. This article focuses on four core recommendations that teacher educators and other practitioners can learn from and apply in teacher preparation coursework to support the learning outcomes and needs of NMAE dialect speakers. These are (a) basic instruction on and descriptions of language variation in reading methods courses, (b) addressing language variation within the core areas of language development, (c) guidance for novice teachers to critically examine reading and literacy theories to plan instruction, and (d) collaboration across disciplines to encourage interdisciplinary partnerships with other school personnel.
