Activity 4.5 Practical benefits to schools outside organizations.


1.      I believe the benefit to the school and the child with an itinerant teacher would help children focus on their challenges and assist them to reach their greatest potential. It will also improve student teacher and parent relationship and allow teachers the opportunity to come-up with strategies to assist students.

2.      Training offered by the itinerant teacher are supports for the teacher parents and children with making of resources. Teachers are also ensured constant observation, guidance and are provided with strategies. Parents are also given the help that they need socially and all their children with special needs remain in school because of these special teachers. Itinerant teachers also support students who have fallen behind in the classes and seek assistances for students at home.

3.      Challenges that I see these teachers may face are: teacher’s unwillingness to cooperate with the itinerant teacher because they are set in their ways. They may also be challenged by parents who are in denial of their children having any problem.

4.      I have not had the opportunity to work with any school working with an outside organization.
