[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's totally reasonable to ask for language to be included that says something like, "Madison requires two X 30 minutes phonics instruction weekly using an evidence-based multi-sensory method."[/quote]

No it’s not. As stated above, it’s about the goals. The school might have access to an evidenced-based approach that is not multi-sensory. Maybe it works even better than, say, OG. The school needs to use what they see best to reach the GOALS that the team (which the parent is part of) agrees to. OP has every right to see the data that shows their kid is making progress towards the goal.

If the OP wants to know more specifics about the approach the school is using, they can schedule a parent conference OUTSIDE of the IEP. [/quote]

I posted above about the legal side of things, but courts have disagreed with you. If a student genuinely needs a particular type of instruction (evidence based multi-sensory is a good example of the type I'm imagining), then it should be on the IEP and failure to provide it could be illegal. This doesn't apply to all students, but sometimes it is legally required. [/quote]
