Today I'm launching a 5-part series on working effectively with staff.  Over the years, one of the biggest issues that I see and hear most teachers struggling with is working with other adults.  Regardless of your role as a special educator, sometimes it seems the students are easier to work with than the staff.  So in this series, we'll chat about how to build a team from the start, get everyone working toward the same goals, and automate the operations of the classroom to reduce stress.  

In episode 1, I'm focusing on building relationships with staff.  We take for granted this will happen, but we shouldn't.  So I'll talk about ways to make it happen well as well as how to make it work in a world in which there is rarely time for staff to talk without the students present.
