[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder if very severe dyslexia could qualify for a 1:1 or self contained[/quote] Self-contained for core academics, yes. I'm not sure what a 1:1 aide could do for dyslexia. Students with dyslexia need special instruction in reading from a special educator - not the assistance of an aide in a general ed classroom. Most students with severe dyslexia are based in general ed settings and are pulled out for special ed reading instruction. Or in MS and HS, they may have a self-contained class for the specific subjects they need. In the gen ed classes, there may be a co-teacher or paraeducator, but not a dedicated 1:1 aide. Accommodations that a student with dyslexia may need in gen ed classes can be provided by technology or a paraeducator who is assigned to several students. [/quote]
