[quote=Anonymous]I think they do it for funding mostly. My DS currently has 20 hrs a wk in his IEP last yr in first grade, it basically meant that he was in the same classroom with the Sp Ed teacher in addition to the Gen Ed teacher. It did not mean that he had her full attention during those times. She helped as needed. DS has no academic issues and his IEP only addresses social/communication and fine motor issues (OT). Two of those hours a week was for pull-outs, 1hr for OT and 3/4 for social skills classes with 1/4 hr for classroom observation and pointers to the Gen Ed teacher. It's notable that DS had 7 IEP hrs in preK, 10hrs in K, and 20 in 1st grade. DS in fully mainstreamed. DS has ASD/Asperger's and his symptoms have improved as he got older too. There is a link somewhere that shows how much money the schools receives for the amt of IEP hours. A little shady yes, but we've been very happy with the services and supports so no point in complaining.[/quote]
