Iep Assignment

This document summarizes a student's IEP report. The student has a specific learning disability in written expression according to their IEP and state rule 51. Some of the student's strengths are working well one-on-one and with praise, as well as word recognition strategies. As a math teacher, the author would build on these strengths and provide structure to help improve the student's written expression. The teacher is concerned about the student's ability to write solutions and take notes. The recommended accommodations are a calendar/assignment book, providing notes/outlines, and oral cues and prompts to help with organization, keeping up in class, and staying on task.

IEP Assignment

1. Disability

From the students IEP and rule 51 it appears as if the student

has a specific learning disability in written expression. On the students

IEP it says he struggles from written expression and organizing

information and transferring thoughts into written words. Rule 51

states, In the category of specific learning disability the child must

have a disorder in one or more of the basic psychological processes

involved in understanding or in using language, spoken or written, that

may manifest itself in an imperfect ability to listen, think, read, write,

spell.

2. Strengths and Characteristics of this Student

The student has many strengths including working well in one on

one situation and when praised, his attendance has improved and has

strengths with word recognition strategies. On the behavioral side he is

polite to adults and takes responsibility for his behaviors and decisions.

As a mathematics content teacher I would build on his strength to work

well when praised to build his self-esteem, productiveness, and control.

I think providing structure in my classroom will help the student


become better at the characteristics he needs to improve his written

expression learning disability. Although it is not directly affective of my

mathematics classroom this will help the student in other classrooms

where it is more affected.

3. Teacher Concerns

If I was this students content teacher I would be concerned about

his ability to write up solutions and answers in class because writing is

imperative to the communication of learning. I would also be

concerned about his ability to keep up with the notes during the

lectures.

4. Accommodations

I would choose to put these accommodations in place:

calendar/assignment book, teacher provides notes/outlines, and oral

cues and prompts. I chose these accommodations based on the

students priority needs listed in the IEP. I chose the

calendar/assignment book to help the student with organization skills

and completing and turning in assignments on time. The provided

notes and outlines would help the student to keep up during lectures

due to his struggles with written expression. The oral cues and prompts

will help the student fulfill the needs of the student to stay on task in a

structured environment.

5. Reactions
I think the materials were useful because they outlined all of the

students needs, which provided me as a teacher to develop a plan of

action for the classroom. I think I could contribute to similar

documents on students in my future.
