[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous].... you are required to make sure the student is looking at you before you deliver instruction, check for understanding with that student before moving on, then write the directions on the board, etc.  The other students have to wait even if they all can go at a faster pace because you have to spend so much time redirecting the student. Then you have to mark down on a paper every few minutes if the student is on task. Then check in with the student after they have begun to work, allow the student to give verbal answers instead of writing them down if the student chooses, provide alternative assignments if it is too difficult, etc....

Is this typical of an iep, or is this an especially unusual case?[/quote]

This is unusual but some iep students can suck up a lot of time. [/quote]

Yes, some kids with IEPs require a lot more attention for various reasons. But don't put this on the kid in a "suck up a lot of time" kind of way. It shows such disdain for them. It's not their fault. It goes back to the system. It's not set up to help them. Sometimes in my experience the parents or the school team push for a less supported class, and the kid needs even more help to get by. But the kid didn't ask to be put in the situation. [/quote]
