About this listen

Is it okay to keep the same tasks in your independent work system week after week?

Short answer? YES.
Until it’s a no. 😅

In this episode of the Special Educators Resource Room, we’re digging into why repetition is powerful—and when it quietly slides into busywork.

🎧 You’ll learn:

  • The green flags for repeating tasks (yes, on purpose!)
  • The subtle signs your system needs a refresh
  • A teacher-friendly trick for rotating tasks without burning out
  • How to balance familiar formats with new skills
  • What to do when change causes work avoidance or shutdowns

✨Spoiler alert: Independent work should be doing the heavy lifting for you—not adding more to your plate.

If you're a busy special education teacher looking for tips, tricks, and resources to save you precious time, I've got you covered! I'm here to help you regain your confidence in the classroom and feel calm and collected as a special educator.

Tune in every Friday for practical tips, tools, and the support you need to to THRIVE in the classroom.
