[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The way people try to describe the functional level is getting absurd. Using paragraph long round about ways to make it sound clinical and politically correct. And leaving those who read it with little idea of the ACTUAL level of the person. I really just don’t get it? Who is it actually for?[/quote] For most people, a single word descriptor -- "level 2" or "needs moderate support" doesn't actually tell me anything about what the student needs. Yes it's more words, but saying that they need X to engage socially, have Y sensory sensitivities, and Z is how they communicate actually tells me how to provide support.[/quote]
