Abstract
There are many barriers to collaborative planning between music educators and special education paraprofessionals (SEPs). While allocated collaborative planning time would be best, the reality for many music educators and SEPs is that they are not given this time. I provide three alternatives to collaborative planning that were suggested by music educators and SEPs who participated in an informal learning community. Suggestions for advocacy as well as an advocacy sidebar are provided.
