DisclaimerMy experience and expertise in no way
exceeds that of my audience. Every day I reflect on my practice, I struggle
to align my values with what I do. I humbly admit that at times I have put my interests
before those of my students and at times have fallen into the trap of what seems quick and efficient when it comes to getting a plan
in place.

So how do we apply this to the IEP process?
Self-determination as a personal attribute, characteristic, or disposition that refers to having control over one's life and destiny
(Michael L. Wehmeyer)

Advise from a great strategist, Master Sun Tzu…
“If you know your opponent and you know yourself, you need not
fear the result of a hundred battles.”

“use the tool that works for each person”
1. Get a common language to discuss learning challenges and developmental delay
2. Get the story
3. Get families talking about the future
4. Get the right people to collaborate
5. Get a visual, student friendly template

1. Get a Common Language
![Page 10: Disclaimer My experience and expertise in no way exceeds that of my audience. Every day I reflect on my practice, I struggle to align my values with what](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551acc72550346b2288b598d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
How many parents relate openly and honestly about their kid’s disability and limitations?
“Reach for the stars”
“All things are possible!”
“You can be anything you want to be
if you just put your mind to it”
![Page 11: Disclaimer My experience and expertise in no way exceeds that of my audience. Every day I reflect on my practice, I struggle to align my values with what](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551acc72550346b2288b598d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Parents and teachers walk the tightrope between protection and independence.
![Page 12: Disclaimer My experience and expertise in no way exceeds that of my audience. Every day I reflect on my practice, I struggle to align my values with what](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551acc72550346b2288b598d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Take a Risk
Devise a lesson plan:
…SWBAT….
“have self awareness of
their disability”
or, “articulate what their disability is and tell a trusted friend”.

Use worksheet, journal, computer or a tape recorder
![Page 14: Disclaimer My experience and expertise in no way exceeds that of my audience. Every day I reflect on my practice, I struggle to align my values with what](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551acc72550346b2288b598d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

2. Get their story…
There is nothing “quick and efficient” about gaining the trust of parents and students. They need to trust you before they share their story.
![Page 16: Disclaimer My experience and expertise in no way exceeds that of my audience. Every day I reflect on my practice, I struggle to align my values with what](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551acc72550346b2288b598d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
![Page 17: Disclaimer My experience and expertise in no way exceeds that of my audience. Every day I reflect on my practice, I struggle to align my values with what](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551acc72550346b2288b598d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
3. Get families talking about the future…
A ranking of priorities for both parents and kids, helps both parties understand the
other and begins a conversation about the future.
![Page 18: Disclaimer My experience and expertise in no way exceeds that of my audience. Every day I reflect on my practice, I struggle to align my values with what](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551acc72550346b2288b598d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Now, make priorities…Rank the priorities in your life? What areas are most important/least important?
Skills for community living ___ Schoolwork ___ Relationships with peers ___ Communication skills ___ Transitions ___ Self-determination ___ Health and wellness ___
![Page 19: Disclaimer My experience and expertise in no way exceeds that of my audience. Every day I reflect on my practice, I struggle to align my values with what](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551acc72550346b2288b598d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Other ways… IEP Parent Planning Worksheet Transition Checklist (indicators of a self-

4. The Right People to Collaborate Person-centered
planning values collaboration
(but does not rely on the strength of all the professionals who attend)

5. A Visual student-led presentation template
Students respond confidently as they weave a story from the pictures and information
they have put together to share.
![Page 23: Disclaimer My experience and expertise in no way exceeds that of my audience. Every day I reflect on my practice, I struggle to align my values with what](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551acc72550346b2288b598d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Most Important Questions Include:
Who are you? What do you want? What are your challenges and barriers? What supports do you need?
![Page 24: Disclaimer My experience and expertise in no way exceeds that of my audience. Every day I reflect on my practice, I struggle to align my values with what](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062620/551acc72550346b2288b598d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
3 options: quit, complain or innovate
Are we using everything we have available?
Can the IEP help our kids “reach forward”
Is it a vehicle? Do we believe in the academic value
of the image? Can a power point IEP “live” outside
the classroom?

The language of the visual….
“Kids intuitively know the rules to visual communication.” (George Lucas)
A “visual” is a practical tool for kids. It levels the playing field.
Think about the power of a “mini film festival” or celebration.
