[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]13:03, Can you tell me more about the "inclusive classroom w/ SpEd teacher assigned to it"? What's the role of SpEd teacher and mainstream teacher? Who's taking the data if there's no aide in the mainstream classroom?

My kid goes to an immersion language school, Mandarin, where they switch classrooms, 50% English, 50% Mandarin.  The Sp Ed teacher is bilingual and assigned to the target language classroom.  She takes the data and helps in the Chinese classroom.

The English classroom started out the yr with an assistant student teacher but no longer has one.  The teacher is very experienced however and does a good job.

It's an inclusive classroom but all the kids were diagnosed after they started at a school where preK is 100% in Mandarin and most don't know any Mandarin prior.  Not a school which is chosen if a child has significant SNs.  Also by first grade, many kids whose needs the school cannot meet have gone elsewhere.

My child with ASD is probably about as severe and affected by a disability as it gets at the school.  Currently, DS's main issue which is addressed in his IEP is his need for a lot of prompts to do his work, finish, stay on task, etc.  Depending on the day and his mood, some days he needs no prompts and other days like recently where he told his teacher, she is "wasting HIS time" by insisting he finish an assignment, he needs a lot.  Oy!  DS does not need any academic support in his IEP just social/behavioral supports.
