[quote=Anonymous]DD is in MS and this is her first IEP other than speech when she was in K. DD has dyslexia and dysgraphia.

The draft IEP includes one goal for decoding. This happens to be the one thing she is actively working on with an ASDEC tutor.

DD, however, struggles with more than just decoding multisyllabic words; she has needs in reading fluency, spelling, written expression, working memory, auditory processing, and self-advocacy for accommodations. Focusing only on decoding leaves out all of these other crucial areas. I get that FCPS can only provide so much...but my question as I prepare for our first IEP meeting is... "How much more can I ask for in the IEP?"

Ideally, I would have liked to see a goal/services to address reading fluency, spelling and written expression, reading comprehension and speech and language. None of those are there. She got one goal.

I get that this will fall on us to provide outside tutoring to help her in these areas but I'd still like to ask FCPS for a fair and reasonable IEP. I'd welcome any advice. [/quote]
