GRADED A+ 100% VERIFIED.
Which resource is provided by Section 504? ANS >>> action 504
guarantees students’ equal access and participation, and
accommodations are often part of providing such access.
What is one type of English language instruction program or model for
Ells? ANS >>> Pullout instruction is a type of program model in which an
English language teacher works with Ells in small groups to provide
English language instruction, pulling them out of their regular classroom
to do so.
Fatima is an EL student in your general education classroom who is
having difficulty with reading, math, and social interaction. She has
been in pullout English language instruction classes in your school for
two years and has not made significant progress in that time. Your team
,has tried interventions and support provided in both English and
Fatima's native language of Farsi, and the team is now considering
whether to recommend that Fatima be evaluated to see whether she
has an educational disability. If Fatima is found to have an educational
disability, which law(s) would apply? ANS >>> Fatima will continue to be
eligible for EL services under Title III, and she will also be protected
under IDEA and eligible for special education services.
As an EL, which accommodation should Fatima receive, whether she is
found to have an educational disability or not? ANS >>> Ells are not
initially required to take all the state proficiency tests that native
speakers of English are required to take, and their scores may not count
in the same way that the scores of native English speakers count.
Which right would be guaranteed to Fatima under federal law if she is
found to have a disability? ANS >>> FAPE is one of the foundational pillars
of IDEA and applies to all students eligible for special education
services.
You are the teacher for a student with a disability who receives services
under IDEA and starts a fight after repeated other behaviour violations.
The school is considering expulsion, which would result in removal of
the student to an alternative school. Why does IDEA require the school
to hold a manifestation determination hearing first? ANS >>> It is unfair
to punish a student with a disability for behaviour that may be caused
by the disability, and a hearing will determine whether this is the case.
Expulsion is not appropriate if the behaviour in question is a
, manifestation of the student's disability; this would amount to
punishing the student for his or her disability.
Does having medical diagnoses automatically qualify for special
education services under one of the 13 categories of disability listed in
IDEA? ANS >>> No. Having a medical diagnosis is different than having an
educational disability. Students who qualify for special education
services under one of the categories of disability listed in IDEA may or
may not have a medical diagnosis. However, all students who
experience an educational disability struggle to access the general
curriculum without appropriate supports and services.
PBIS is an example of which type of school-wide support framework?
ANS >>> It is an example of MTSS (multitiered systems of supports).
What is the most common educational disability under IDEA and is
characterized by difficulty reading, writing, listening, speaking, and
reasoning? ANS >>> Specific learning disability (SLD) is the most common
disability type under IDEA and includes dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia,
auditory processing disorder, and nonverbal learning disability. This
disability impacts a student's ability to effectively read, write, speak,
reason, or do math.
What are effective strategies to prepare and support students through
transitions? ANS >>> Visual reminders can support students in organizing
their own expectations about what they are doing now and what is to
happen next. A behaviour chart helps student determine what
