As special educators, we all want our relationships with families to result in positive IEP meetings.  This episode focuses on 5 things special educators can do during IEPs to build positive relationships with families and result in positive IEP meetings. I've talked about the mechanics of virtual IEPs in Episode 34. But with the advent of more virtual IEPs, I think the 5 tips from today's episode are increasingly important to assure that we can build strong collaborative relationships with families, which ultimately will lead to more positive IEPs.
