[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As others have said, thank you for advocating for her. If her developmental delay prevents her from understanding/being able to learn what you are teaching the other kids, she needs a different curriculum. That’s the whole point of individual, specialized instruction. She should be getting instruction that she can access. Maybe that numbers or colors or drawing or following one step instructions or cutting with scissors. I don’t know what she’s ready to learn. But “will she catch up” isn’t the relevant question. Does that make sense?[/quote] Children in the beginning of kindergarten- their needs are just being identified. Assessments are not easy at this age. This is very typical. Many students in kindergarten and first grade have needs that are being identified. Please stop bashing schools and sped teams. How would they know at the start of the school year? give teams time to assess, interpret, and intervene before bashing and assuming.[/quote]
