Developed by the Ontario Teachers' Federation (OTF) with funding from the Ministry of Education, "The Teachers' Gateway to Special Education" has become a great source for strategies and resources to help Teachers address the unique needs of students from K - 12. The website includes links to Board special education plans, Ministry documents, definitions of key Spec. Ed. terms and can be used as a practical guide for Teachers building Individual Education Plans (IEPs). Here is your link https://www.teachspeced.ca/
