Not to mention, that this has given many disabled individuals chance to a quality education. This case has made congress take a closer look at the individualize needs that is acquired for students by mandating the school to find a program that will help students individual needs in educational system. “Power imbalances between parents and school districts cannot be eliminated, but the mandatory provision of information will go a long way” (Kotler, p.553, 2014). This help secure a people with disabilities a chance for a better future in educational system.

My reaction to this case study is that, first, Aaron could of handled it better with less anger and just asked what time was best for Leigh to talk about the grade differences. Second, I believe Leigh handle him well, in that situation. She was right to make an appointment so that he can get her undivided attention and come up with a great response to it. Third, I thought she was right in her grading because Dale made an effort with his learning disability, while, Aaron made none. I was glad she graded by effort with a student who had a learning disability or not. Fourth, I liked that Meg Dament, the resource teacher, believed in Dale’s ability to be in an average class and helped him along the way to achieve a passing grade in Leigh’s class. Lastly, I like that Leigh was giving the situation real thought of how to respond and fix the situation and to hope it doesn’t happen again.

Anderson first year of teaching she should understand that students regardless if they have any disabilities or diagnosed are filled with an array of personalities and Howard is no expectation from his peers. It’s vital that she start and end every day with commendation for all students. Ms. Anderson needs to provide a period for customary meeting with the Howard to strengthen and survey behavioral and scholastic advancement. When, she starts to build solid routines for checking advance, for example, conduct outlines or charts that portray progress moving in the direction of an objective. It will provide open doors for Howard to share or illustrate their uncommon aptitudes to cohorts. Communicate is key with any educator so Ms. Anderson should consider to phrase composed remarks in a positive way by starting off simply by giving students basic errands and progress to the more perplexing (North Branford Schools, 2004). Avoid approaching the any student when they seem heedless. Utilization of favored interests, which are every now and again turned, as reinforces for proper conduct and evacuation of reinforces for wrong conduct. Students have their own one of kind hobbies and as educators we can utilize this further bolstering our good fortune as methods for fortification (Hudec, 2015). On the off chance that there is a computer in the classroom that is specifically noteworthy to a kid showing ADHD practices, computer time can be utilized as fortification

Week two of field observation at Crestone Charter School. My Second week of field observations was really fun and interactive. I had the opportunity to work with several students from the k-1 class with special needs. We traveled to several reading stations and did a read along with the fourth and fifth-grade students. At arrival, I met with the main Para, Ammie Morphet and was informed that Lexi whom is one of the charter schools highest priority/needs students was the student I would be working with. Lexi usually has a personal in class Para that works with her throughout the day, but she was out sick. Since I know Lexi and have personal experience working with her we came to the conclusion that it would be best if I assisted with Lexis daily routine and any other classroom needs. This allowed Mrs. Morphet to attend to the other students she had previously scheduled for us to meet with.

A hidden factor that has not been discussed is the impact it will have on you as the teacher. We will discuss this at a later date.

Corpus Christi Independent School District, 1995 the attendees were, John E. Buser, Jr. (an autistic twenty-nine-year-old-man), John E Buser, Sr., Virginia Buser, and the Corpus Christi ISD personnel (Shirley Selz, Gary Thomasson, Hall and Marks). From 1985-86 school year, John Jr.’s parents participated in ARD and IEPs committee meetings for students with disabilities. The IEPs are important and critical to the parent participation in provide parents with opportunities to engage in discussion about their child and offer their opinion for recommendations (Lecture 5). The parents disagreed and agreed in the meetings with the proposed IEPs but in April of 1986 the participated in an ARD meeting where they did not agree with the ARD committee’s recommendations for their son. This was then brought to

This session in particular involved transitioning into college. A young boy had lost his hearing with age and he is going into his senior year of high school. He stated to the group that he was looking into colleges and his mom, who was also present, was afraid about his academic success. This student chooses to use hearing aids and lip-reading as a method of understanding what hearing individuals are saying. His mom stated when teachers do not follow with his 504 plan, he ends up doing poorly in the class; otherwise he is an academically high achieving student. Both he and his mom have high hopes, he wants to attend Brown for a science major. He instantly became sad when mentioning that Umass is more proabable due to his hearing loss. He seemed to be timid about asking for help or enforcing his 504 plan with teachers. The student stated that it is a hassle for the teacher and he would rather manage with what he can.

The purpose of Response to Intervention is early detection and identification of learning concerns of students and the development of an individualized plan that addresses the appropriate prescription for resolving the students’ academic or behavioral issue. In our twenty-first century learning communities, students are required to participate and are engaged in educational activities that may challenge their ability to grasp the concept in manners conducive to their learning styles. Schools are challenged to examine their methods of instruction to meet the needs of all children making them successful in all areas of academic content. “A quality school is a place where students learn to think and apply knowledge to new situations, where students are involved in and excited about their learning, where students make individual gains in process and knowledge, where adults know they care about individual students,

As I stated in my discussion for this week, I feel that this the Act 1990 & 2004- Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEIA) is the most important of all the American with Disabilities Acts. I chose this portion of the chapter to highlight as what this Act is all about- Equality & Equity for children with disabilities. With the Education many individuals are then able to look for housing, look for a well-paying job or even create/ design new innovations for other people with disabilities. The foundation needed to thrive in the United States is Education.

While attending a high school ARD committee meeting, the parents refuse to compromise to allowing their child to have the legal right to full inclusion in a regular classroom with modifications. First, the committee should go over the notice that was given to the parents prior to the meeting so that everyone knows what the meeting is about. The notice should include a full explanation of what is proposed, why it is proposed, alternatives, a reminder to the parents of their procedural safeguards, and a list of sources for parents to contact to help them understand their rights (Walsh, p. 101). The ARD committee meeting should also alert the parents that they have the right to revoke consent for services. This information should not only

If these students were placed in a regular classroom, they were often functionally excluded, when no support was provided for the child or the teacher. In addition, many students were misclassified following inaccurate assessment, placement or tracking. These past practices have been deemed in violation of a student’s constitutional rights. As a result, IDEA now requires that the educational program that is developed by the IEP team provide the child with opportunities in the least restrictive environment (LRE). LRE is the most normal setting that is possible for the student. The team should take several things into consideration when making this determination. First, they must compare the benefits in the regular class and the benefits in the special class. The U.S. Court of Appeals determined that the appropriateness of placement in the regular classroom is not dependent on the student’s ability to learn the same things the other students learn in the regular classroom. The benefit of social interaction should also be taken into account. Second, consideration should be given to the potentially beneficial or harmful effects that placement in the regular classroom may have on the students involved. Finally, cost should be considered when determining the appropriateness of student placement.

Teachers’ rights are guaranteed by states and the U.S. Constitutions. The Fourteenth Amendment provides that no state shall “deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.” Dismissal occurs when a teacher is removed from employment during a statutory period of probation or during the term of the permanent contract or tenure. The conditions of employment are controlled by state statute. Dismissal can happen during an annual contract or during the tenure or continuing contract. To dismiss the teacher, the school board must prove good cause and give the individual an opportunity to disprove the reason for dismissal. If a teacher is dismissed, it requires full procedural process.

ARD is the acronym for Texas which stands for admission, review, and dismissal. This acronym represents perfectly what the program is designed to do. Students apply for special Education evaluation with the parents’ consent and acknowledgement that the test is being done. Evaluation may take up to 60 calendar days to complete. The results will then be reviewed certified educators. The educators will then decide what is best needed to provide the student with what they need to achieve the standardized curriculum. After the extensive processes a meeting will be conducted with parents, student, and educators to discuss the results of the evaluation. This is where the last part of the acronym, dismissal comes into effect. If the student is not diagnosed with one of the 12 disabilities he or she will be dismissed from the program. However if a positive diagnoses was conceded the further action will be disused.

I collaborated with Ms. Edwards, one of the interventionists for K-2nd grade about one the students in my class receiving assist from her the first week of field experience. We talked about how I can best teach this student with behavioral/attention issues. Through, this discussion, we concluded that it would be beneficial for me to get to know the student on a personal level in
