Beliefs
All students can learn and demonstrate growth (ALL means ALL) Specialized instruction (IDEA, ELL and Title) is a continuum of services (not
a place) Relationships and collaboration (tearing down silos of education) so
stakeholders will focus on decisions that are best for ALL students Responsibility and accountability in teaching and supporting ALL students Strong leadership at all levels to ensure that students are supported in the
least restrictive environment High quality professional learning empowers all stakeholders and builds
capacity for the success of ALL students

Policy Changes & Practices that will Impact the IEP
Identifying students with a Specific Learning Disability• As of July 1, 2014, RTI² will be the framework used by teams to identify a
student with a Specific Learning Disability.
Evaluation timeline changes • As of January 29, 2014 TN changed to a 60 calendar day evaluation timeline
which aligns with federal guidelines. A program will be implemented within 30 calendar days from eligibility determination.
![Page 10: Special Education Framework](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110102/5681375e550346895d9eebe4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Policy Changes & Practices that will Impact the IEP
Elimination of short term objectives• As of March 31, 2014, TN will no longer have the requirement
of benchmarks or short term objectives in IEPs, except for the students who participate in the alternate assessment
– Progress monitoring tools will chart progress towards goals– Students receiving intervention through special education will be
progress monitored in their specific area of deficit.– Communication regarding progress through regular progress
reports– Academic Progress monitoring data will be shared with parents as
frequently as non-disabled peers.

Specific Learning Disabilities
“Specific Learning Disability” The term Specific Learning Disability means a disorder in one or more of the basic psychological processes involved in understanding or in using language, spoken or written, which may manifest itself in the imperfect ability to listen, think, speak, read, write, spell, or do mathematical calculations, and that adversely affects a child’s educational performance. Such term includes conditions such as perceptual disabilities (e.g., visual processing), brain injury that is not caused by an external physical force, minimal brain dysfunction, dyslexia, and developmental aphasia.

Rate of Improvement & Progress Monitoring
Progress Monitoring- Progress monitoring is used to assess students’ academic performance, to quantify a student rate of improvement or responsiveness to instruction, and to evaluate the effectiveness of instruction. Progress monitoring can be implemented with individual students or an entire class.
Rate of Improvement (ROI)- The expected rate of improvement on progress monitoring assessments is the number of units of measure (e.g., words read correctly [wrc], correct responses, correct digits) a child has made per week since the beginning of the intervention. To discover this rate, teachers should divide the total number of units gained by the number of weeks that have elapsed. The ROI is compared to the improvement of a typical peer to determine adequate progress.

ALL students are provided instruction based on CCSS The most intensive interventions (special education), are in
addition to core instruction-not a replacement Intervention
• Based on individual area of need• Content/Skill specific• Does not necessarily include all content areas or skills
Transition• Begins in kindergarten• Focuses on career and college readiness • Uses current and previous data to inform and guide Transition

Common Core State Standards:Application to Students with Disabilities
Students with disabilities are a heterogeneous group with one common characteristic:• the presence of disabling conditions that significantly hinder
their abilities to benefit from general education
Participate with success:• Instructional Supports• Instructional Accommodations• Assistive technology devices and supports
![Page 32: Special Education Framework](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110102/5681375e550346895d9eebe4/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
“Least Dangerous Assumption”
States that in the absence of absolute evidence, it is essential to make the assumption that, if proven to be false, would be least dangerous to the individual.
Therefore, the IEP teams should operate from the criterion of least dangerous assumption by considering the least restrictive setting, general education, first, for all students, regardless of disability, before considering more restrictive settings.
Evidence and data collected should be discussed before making the determination that a student requires a more restrictive setting at each IEP meeting (Rossetti & Tashie, 2013).

Specially Designed InstructionUniversal Design for Learning
Does not mean working at a lower level; nor does it weaken the curriculum or change the standard
Is not the same as an accommodation Is specific to skills deficits, not a particular subject or
content area Focus on the importance of:
• Multiple means of representation• Multiple means of action and expression• Multiple means of engagement

ALL Students Receive High Quality Core Instruction
Special Education is Not a Place!
Indicator 5 of the Annual Performance Report • Children with IEPs are served inside the regular classroom 80%
or more of the day to the extent possible• Should have evidence of LRE
– Data used to support the team decision
Continuum of Services• General Education teachers are the content experts• Interventions are in addition to the 80% core instruction• Intervention must match the specific area(s) of deficit
Neither IDEA nor the Department of Education define inclusion and instead refer to the requirement of school districts to place students in the least restrictive environment

6 Steps to Writing a Sound PLEP
1. Bring current data to the IEP meeting2. Be very specific and make sure it is an accurate reflection.
• Not how a student functions on a particular day, but consistently (show a pattern)
3. Review current test scores, progress monitoring, and evaluation results prior to the meeting• Ensure understanding of the student’s specific needs and
current functioning levels
4. Write in positive terms5. Describe the impact of deficit area on mastery of
standard(s)6. Use the “stranger test” to assess PLEP
• Another district/teacher should be able to begin instruction immediately with the details in the IEP

PLEP Summary
Provides the informational basis for generating goals, supports, accommodations, and services that are specifically designed to meet the student’s individual needs
Align the student’s PLEP information with the following:• Measurable Annual goals• Supplementary aids/services/supports• Transition needs• Interventions• Accommodations
Identifies the student’s instructional needs that may be written as goals

Example Present Levels of Educational Performance (PLEP)
After you view PLEPS consider these questions:• Do you know in which area(s) the student is exceptional?
Marked Yes• Do you know in which area(s) the student requires
intervention?• Do you know where to begin instruction/intervention? • Do you know how the area of exceptionality is aligned to
the standards? • Do you know how the area of deficit will impact the
student on the Mastery of standards?– Ex. Reading fluency deficit will impact student throughout core
instruction in all content areas. – Ex. Math Calculation deficit will impact student in content area(s)
related to math.

Aligning exceptional PLEP (deficit area) with core instruction (standards)
Alignment of core instruction with area of deficit-Susan significantly struggles in the area of pre-reading and reading skills. Susan’s reading deficits will impact her mastery of standards, specifically standards that include reading and reading comprehension.
Other Examples:Reading fluency deficit will impact student throughout core instruction in all content areas. Ex. Math Calculation deficit will impact student in content area(s) related to math.

Questions to Consider: Measurable Annual Goals
When you review Measurable Annual Goals, ask:• Are they measurable?• Are they observable?• Are they reasonable?• Do they include criteria for mastery?
Ask:What skills does the student require to master the content of the curriculum?
Rather Than:What curriculum content does the student need to master?
![Page 64: Special Education Framework](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110102/5681375e550346895d9eebe4/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Measurable Annual Goal vs. Short Term Objectives
Measurable Annual Goal
Very specific, no longer broad Includes criteria for mastery
within the goal May have more measurable
annual goals if distinctly different skills
Short term objectives
Instead progress monitor to show progress toward the MAG.
If need short term objective you can still use them.
Required for students on alternate assessment
![Page 65: Special Education Framework](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110102/5681375e550346895d9eebe4/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Short Term Objective Requirements
Required for students with significant cognitive disabilities assessed on an alternate assessment for accountability
65
Short-term Objectives Are: Short-term Objectives Are Not:
Skills that need to be directly taught Accommodations that are provided within the classroom
Student behaviors that demonstrate understanding and application of skills
Interventions or programs of curriculum
Separate skills required to meet the goal Stair step approximations towards the goal
Skills and behaviors that a student must master to achieve independence
Isolated skills to access small group instruction

Re-teaching/Remediation vs. Intervention
Re-teaching/ Remediation Intervention
Tier I-Common Core Standards Goal is to reteach the standards students are struggling with rather than specific skill deficits. These are your students who are very close to reaching the next achievement level based on the curriculum standard measure.
Special Education Intervention Goal is to provide research-based interventions aligned to specific skill deficit(s) as identified by multiple sources of data including universal screening and progress monitoring information.

Questions to Consider for Intervention
Are the interventions related to the student’s areas of deficit?• For example: reading fluency, math calculation, written
expression Do the interventions relate to the measurable annual goal? What must the student know and be able to do? What accommodations/supports are needed to achieve the
goal? What interventions are needed? How will we determine mastery? How will progress toward goal be monitored? What data must be collected and how often?

Guiding Principles for Intervention
The measurable annual goal drives the intervention. The intervention provided in the continuum of services must
be the most intense intervention. The effectiveness of the intervention will be continuously
monitored to determine if the intervention needs to be changed.
See Characteristics of intervention sheet
The goal of the intervention is to work towards the measurable annual goal so the student meets his goal and no longer requires an IEP.

Accommodations and Modifications
Accommodations change how the student is taught or expected to learn.• provide equitable access during instruction and assessments and
neither change the construct being assessed, nor compromise the integrity or validity of the assessment or content.
• intended to reduce or even eliminate the effects of a student’s disability;
• do not reduce learning expectations, if based on need Modifications change what the student is taught or expected
to learn.• a change in what is being taught to or expected from the student • The least dangerous assumption would be that students are able
to participate within the core curriculum without modifications unless student performance data indicates otherwise.

5 Step Process for Accommodation Selection
1. Expect all students to achieve grade-level academic content standards
2. Learn about accommodations3. Select accommodations4. Administer accommodations during assessment5. Evaluate and improve accommodation use
![Page 77: Special Education Framework](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110102/5681375e550346895d9eebe4/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Accommodation Summary
Enable students to participate more fully in instruction and assessments and to demonstrate their knowledge and skills
Based on individual needs and not disability category, English language proficiency alone, level of instruction, amount of time spent in a general education classroom, program setting, or availability of staff
Accommodations must be based on a documented need in the instruction/assessment setting and should not be provided for the purpose of giving the student an enhancement that could be viewed as an unfair advantage.

Participation in State Assessments
The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) each require all students with disabilities to be included in State assessment systems. The prohibition against exclusion from participation or denial of benefits to, or discrimination against, individuals with disabilities contained in section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act applies to state assessment and accountability systems.
In addition to state assessments, the IDEA (section 612(a)(16)) requires that all students with disabilities participate in district-wide assessment programs and that alternate assessments be provided for students with disabilities who cannot participate in grade-level assessments, even with accommodations.

Progress Monitoring and Data Based Decisions
When progress monitoring is implemented correctly, some of the benefits include:
accelerated rate of learning because students are receiving more appropriate instruction;
more informed instructional/reevaluation decisions;
documentation of student progress for accountability purposes;
more efficient communication with families and other professionals about students’ progress; and
higher expectations for students by teachers.

Progress Monitoring and Data Based Decisions
Progress monitoring should occur for students with disabilities as frequently as for their nondisabled peers.
Ongoing assessment of student learning provides continuous feedback on the effectiveness of instruction and intervention.
Data indicates areas where a change in instruction and intervention may be required.
Data points can be used to make decisions regarding instruction and intervention. Once several data points are collected, a pattern of response can be investigated.

ProceduresRoles and Responsibilities of Group Members Make sure that each person in your group is serving in at least one role. If you have more than 4 people in your group, have more than one Timekeeper/Gatekeeper. If you have less than 4 people in your group, have group members serve in more than one role. Everyone should serve as a secondary facilitator, helping make the group’s work easier.
Small Group FacilitatorThe Facilitator leads the discussion, making sure that everyone is fully participating.
Examples of getting all to provide input: “Will each person give your thoughts about what data we should include in our present levels of performance?”
“As the most highly qualified professional providing the most intense intervention, what supports would we have in place for our student? What do you all suggest? We will start with (name) and go around the group”.
ScribeThe Scribe writes the information for the group on the presentation chart Reporter The Reporter reports the small group's work to the whole group.
Timekeeper/ GatekeeperThe Timekeeper keeps track of the time and makes sure that the group finishes the task on time as well as ensuring everyone remains on task.

Procedures
This activity is meant to simulate the collaboration that is needed to gather all the necessary information to write an instructionally appropriate IEP.
As a professional educator, there might be times when you receive a file on a student and there will be things missing. This is a time where you might have to go look for the information to make your file complete.
– For example, you might need to discuss with the general education teacher, special education teacher, school psychologist, and any one else necessary to make sure all information is collected.

Narratives:
Medical Information: Ex. Susan’s parents indicated there are not medical concerns at this time.
• Do not leave this area blank
Student’s Strengths:Ex. Specific Learning Disability-associated deficit in Reading-Susan has strong listening comprehension skills. She enjoys listening to information when it is presented orally, and recalls information very easily. She has a strong sight word vocabulary and tends to utilize this as her primary strategy when reading independently.

Narratives:
Parent Concerns:
Ex. Specific Learning Disability-associated deficit in Reading. Mr. & Mrs. Test are very concerned about Susan's reading progress. They report that she is easily frustrated when she has to read independently and worry that she will only fall further behind.
Impact on Mastery of Standards: Ex. Specific Learning Disability-associated deficit in readingSusan's deficits in the areas of basic reading skills, specifically phonics & decoding, and fluency impacts her mastery of reading standards as well as impacts her access and participation in core instruction. At this time, she is does not have the skills necessary to independently read information in academic areas which interferes with comprehension.

Example PLEPS
Associated Deficits of Specific Learning Disability in Reading
Test of Silent Word Reading Fluency (TOSWRF) In looking at Susan's protocol, it appears that she worked very slowly. She managed to divide 45 words on the form, but made 10 errors. Her descriptive rating indicated that she fell within the below average range placing her at the 13th percentile. Based on expected third grade norms, Susan is significantly behind for her current grade level. This impacts her mastery of standards throughout content instruction as third grade is the year instruction switches from learning to read to reading to learn. Exceptional: Yes
Curriculum-Based Measure: Given a 1 minute fluency test, Susan accurately sounded 42 letters. This represents the 45th percentile according to winter norms. Word Identification Fluency: Susan identified 6 words from the CBM third grade word list in one minute. This represents the 10th percentile according to winter norms. Her difficulties with phonics and word identification impacts her mastery of standards.
Reading Fluency-Given a 1 minute grade level passage, Susan read 25 words correctly with 11 errors. This is significantly below the 10th percentile according to winter norms. Susan is significantly behind grade level average compared to her third grade peers in word identification fluency and reading fluency and will be impacted her mastery of reading standards. Exceptional: Yes

Link MAG to Characteristics of Intervention
• This is not added into Easy IEP

Characteristics of the Most Intensive Intervention
Potential intervention components:• specifically target student’s skill deficit • are research based, explicit, and systematic• are more intensive than general education interventions• for academics, must be more intensive than Tier III• provides support to students in addition to intervention

Accommodations
Accommodations change the “how”
Must address: • Core instruction participation and access• Assessment participation and access• Student’s entire school day; not limited to ELA & Math
119
![Page 120: Special Education Framework](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110102/5681375e550346895d9eebe4/html5/thumbnails/120.jpg)
Modifications
Modifications change the “what.” This is a very significant decision that should only be considered as a last resort.
Scaffolding, accommodations, support, interventions, and additional adult assistance should all be tried first with data collected to determine effectiveness and fidelity of each accommodation.
Modifications are restrictive by nature. They are only the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) once all other options have been implemented with fidelity and data has been collected. Only then can we determine that modifications are required.

Considerations of Service Delivery
• Least Restrictive Environment – All students are general education students first– All students receive high quality core instruction— for
students with the most significant needs, the “how” and “where” is the “I” in IEP
• Areas of deficit • Intervention required to meet student’s need
– Directly linked to the MAG– A person is not an intervention
121
![Page 122: Special Education Framework](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110102/5681375e550346895d9eebe4/html5/thumbnails/122.jpg)
Considerations of Service Delivery Cont.
• Student independence– The MAGs should be increasing the student’s skills so he or she
requires increasingly less accommodation/modifications the following year.
• Collaboration between general and special education teachers• Training support for staff/peers
– May be noted in the MAGs under “details—supplementary supports for school personnel”
Ex: A child has a visual schedule. A special education professional would provide a fifteen minute training to all staff on that particular schedule.

Progress Monitoring
How will you know if the intervention is working?
Monitor progress at least as often as non-disabled peers• Once a week• Once every other week
Monitor progress in student’s identified area of need
If the intervention is working, keep going!
If the intervention is not working, the team may need to consider changing the intervention

Moving Forward—Self Reflection
What questions do you still have? Who on your team/school/LEA can assist you moving forward? How will you communicate about the changes to parents? When? In
meetings, prior, multiple times? What interventions do you have available at your school? What interventions might you need? How will your schedule be different next year?
If you have questions you would like answered, please place the index card in the box in your room.
