Resource rooms are rooms where a child can go to be pre-taught and re-taught material they may not understand in a mainstream classroom. In these rooms, the child may also take certain tests or complete tasks where they may not otherwise be able to complete them. After they are pre-taught, they go back out into the mainstream classroom to learn and come back to the resource classroom to be re-taught.

PROS:

• They are getting pre-taught and re-taught material in order for them to better understand it

• They have certain (extra) accommodations when taking tests or completing assignments

CONS:

• They may be missing other material taught in the class while they are being retaught

• They are coming in contact with a lot of teachers in one day so they may be getting different perspectives or teaching methods
