The problem with Resource is that there is no specific content taught. Students don't think it is a "real" class, they lie about the work they have to do, they resist study skills instruction, and mostly they waste valuable time. If you teach Resource, how can it be successfully structured since there is such a broad range of abilities, students are in many different classes, and there isn't an efficient system for communicating with classroom teachers?
Every level has its challenges. Mine is Junior High School. I had the same problem with high school students.
