IEP meeting for Isabella Hart
April 22, 2012
Dr. Yvonne McCastle
IEP meeting for Isabella Hart

My name is Ms. Michelle Yearby and I am the paraprofessional in Mrs. McCastle’s third grade class. I will be presenting information today in this IEP meeting on Isabella Hart, who is a student in Mrs. McCastle’s class. I will give a detailed description of Isabella’s conduct at school and her parents have provided me with a statement o Isabella’s behavior at home. Isabella’s strengths, interests, and areas of improvement will be discussed. There will be a definition of Isabella’s exceptionality and its prevalence given in this report. I will give a reason why Isabella has been given the classification and last I will discuss what is the best educational practices, behavior management, assistive technology, and accommodations used in the classroom to address Isabella’s needs.
Isabella is a good student at school but she becomes very hyper sometimes. Once she completes her assignments she will get up and walk around the classroom. This behavior is very disturbing to some of the other students in the class and I or Mrs. McCastle has to constantly tell her to sit down in her seat. Isabella’s grades are average in all subjects except reading. Her reading level is that of a child in kindergarten. Isabella sometimes talks to herself but rarely does she interact with the other students in the class. Amy, another student in our class often tries to talk with Isabella, if she responds the tone is very low and very hard to hear and some days she does not respond at all. Isabella’s mother, Anna, wrote in her statement that at home Isabella is all over the place and constantly bothers things in the house. She has noticed that when Isabella is sitting on the computer or watching television she rocks back and forth in a repeated motion. When Isabella talks she does stutter and Anna believes this is the reason why she does not talk to other children because she is

    Specifically, when addressing intellectual disabilities, a plethora of training options are available, language training, socialization training, self-care skills training and academic skills training would all be potential tools to deal with singular and comorbid disorders. (Pg. 411- 412) Moreover, I would understand that I was part of a problem solving, collaborative team. A team comprised of my child, myself/spouse, physicians, mental health practitioners and educators. I would understand that a good working consensus would be paramount to the success and potential of my child's outcome. That educating family, friends and neighbors to marginalize or eliminate stigma, fears and ignorance would be of the utmost importance. Lastly, I would never cease to see my child's potential and to treat them as a whole complex living being rather than a series of clinical…

    Transitioning to adulthood can be stressful and challenging for all, but for those diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and their caregivers transitioning to adulthood can provoke feeling of uncertainty or even fear. People with ASD function at different levels and require varying degrees of care. There should be an individualized educational plan (IEP) established by age 16 containing postsecondary goals related to training, education, employment, and independent living skills along with the transition services needed to assist in reaching those goals referred to as individualized transition plan (ITP) (Heward, 2013). Defining the needs of young adults with ASD should start with listening to the individual and helping him or her plan for the life he or she wants. When establishing an ITP, goals in education/training, employment and independent living; type of support needed on a job; residential alternatives; and interventions for any behavioral problems should be addressed.…

    As a teacher's assistant, I have learned how important it is to help students with exceptionalities in order to provide them with a comfortable and enjoyable learning experience. An experience that stands is that of a particular student who suffered from anxiety issues and was unable to build or maintain interpersonal relationships. This obstacles were critical in preventing the student from learning and as a result, I worked with the primary educator to develop ways in which we could have best helped this student. I had realized that this was more than just about being an educator, but to also ensure that this student would improve outside of school. This is something that is important for an educator: to help your students in every aspect…
