This little video is so sweet for a sister to do for her 'sibs'!
Just had to post it here for everyone to see! Thanks Torihoo!

Writing an Inclusive Individualized Education Plan (IEP)

Writing an Inclusive Individualized Education Plan (IEP)
IEP goals should allow for participation in and access to the general education curriculum while focusing on the student’s individual needs. All students can be educated within the context of the general education setting with appropriate supports. As educators and families recognize the benefits of inclusive schooling, they can begin to work together to make inclusive placements a reality. Where a child is educated is one of the most important educational decisions a team can make. It is essential that teams work together to purposefully create successful IEPs so that students with disabilities have full access to general education curriculum alongside their peers without disabilities.

1. While participating in 12th grade biology, Sophie will be able to name and describe four big ideas from each unit of study, with 80% accuracy for each unit.
2. While working in cooperative groups with 2-4 peers without disabilities, Noah will successfully take turns 4 out of 5 times.
3. When signing up for centers, signing out to use the restroom, and writing her name on her paper, Jamie will legibly write her name 4 out of every 5 opportunities.

PEAK’s Parent Advisors are available to help families, teachers, and other professionals brainstorm creative ideas and strategies to help develop IEPs that will support students to be successful in inclusive educational placements.
