Video/Rationale

The general education curriculum must be the starting point, the bedrock for what to teach students with IEPs. To do otherwise results in expectations for their learning and achievement that are far lower than what is expected of peers without IEPs. Lower expectations result in lower achievement."

(Thompson, 2022)

Instructional Strategies for Students with IEPs

Inclusion

Students with special needs are provided with an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) to meet their unique learning needs. In a general eduction setting, students with special needs thrive when they are taught in the same classroom as their general education peers (The Positive Action Staff, 2021).

Team

Discuss what they will be learning. Group students in small groups and give options on how to complete assignments.

Both special and general teachers support students in small groups, with more student engagement, and different teaching options.

Discuss and establish behavior expectations. Go over how students are expected to behave in class.

The IEP team supports students with IEPs; para-educators, speech therapists, OT, and PT (based on IEP services).
