SHERMAN, Texas -- Sherman's Midway Mall once thrived during the holiday season with shoppers filling the building. Once U.S. Highway 75 was built, several stores moved out of the mall and into Sherman Town Center. Now, years later many of the stores are still vacant.
Special education teachers typically work in elementary or secondary schools with students with physical or mental disabilities. Teachers teach students course curriculum at each studentâs pace and help students develop basic life skills so they can function independently beyond the classroom.
Special education teachers interact with general classroom teachers, parents, and administrators on a regular basis. Teachers must regularly assess studentâs learning progress using critical thinking skills and work with students struggling with dyslexia, ADHD, learning disabilities or mental and physical handicaps.
