Worried about writing IEPs
I am currently working as an Instructional Assistant in an autistic support classroom. I have a bachelors in psychology but this is where I started my career after college. My lead teacher is leaving the classroom next month and my admin and staff want me to get emergency certified and become a teacher and run the classroom myself. I pride myself on the job that I currently do as an IA and the teachers tell me I already do so much that I would be a great teacher. However, one thing stopping me is that I have no idea how to write an IEP. I have a ton of support here but do not want to fail. Is it as hard as it seems or am I overthinking it? Any tips or books or things to do that’ll help me?
