The teacher gives Michael 40 words and asks him to classify them as nouns, adjectives, verbs, and adverbs. On Monday, Michael successfully identified 10 words, Tuesday he successfully identified 8 words, Wednesday he successfully identified 12 words, and Thursday he successfully identified 11 words. Which of the following steps should the teacher consider as the next step in Michael's instruction?
During her morning opening, Mrs. Martin sings a welcome song with the class. Mrs. Martin says, "Good Morning, Good Morning, Jill, how are you?" While she sings, she claps along with each word. The student she calls on is expected to reply, "Good morning, I'm (insert feeling), How are you (insert another
student's name)," and clap for each word she speaks. Then the student Jill calls will repeat the reply, clapping along with his response.
Clapping along with their speech helps students to practice:
Ellie is a student in Ms. Lee's prekindergarten class. She is exploring a set of blocks with a friend at one of the classroom centers. Ms. Lee observes Ellie as she lines up seven blocks in a row. Ellie looks at the blocks and says, "One, two, three, four,

Mr. Burke is a second-grade teacher working on counting sets of coins with a small
group of students. Students are each given a set of play coins and asked to find the total. Mr. Burke watches one student, Elijah, as he counts a set of 3 dimes, 2 nickels, and 2 pennies. Elijah separates the coins into two sets: a row of dimes and nickels and a separate row of pennies. He then begins counting the row of dimes and nickels by saying, "five, ten, fifteen, twenty, twenty-five." Next, he moves to the pennies and continues to count on, saying "twenty-six, twenty-seven."
Based on
this observation, which of the following skills should Mr. Burke plan on reviewing with Elijah?
identification, assessment, admission, and dismissal.
- A general or special education teacher, caretaker, or parent observes the student's lack of progress in the general education curriculum, or in social or behavioral interactions based on all assessment data.
- The general education teacher follows the response to intervention (RtI) process. RtI is a scientifically research based instructional intervention delivered in the general education classroom. It is a process to monitor and measure student progress in the general education curriculum.
- If both the instructional and behavioral interventions are not sufficient for the student to progress in the general education curriculum, the special education teacher observes the student's progress in the classroom. Based on that observation and review of the assessment data, the special education teacher begins the initial process of evaluation.
- The Admission, Review, and Dismissal (ARD) committee determines the eligibility for specialized services based on the assessment of the data. The assessment data determines the disability. If a disability and an educational need for specialized services are determined, then with parental consent, the student is eligible to receive specialized services (i.e. special education).
- The ARD committee then designs the Individualized Educational Plan (IEP). The purpose of the IEP is to note the student's present level of performance, measurable annual goals including local education agency (LEA), and the district and state assessments to determine and monitor progress within the general education curriculum as supported by the modifications. The ultimate goal of the IEP is student progress within the general education curriculum as set forth by Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS). The implementation of the IEP is a collaborative effort between the general and special education teacher.
- Every 12 months there must be an ARD meeting to evaluate a student's progress towards goals. A meeting can be called at any point by any member of the committee, but it must occur at least once per year.
- Every three years, there is a review of existing data (REED), where the ARD committee determines if dismissal from the specialized services is appropriate. A student may meet their goals and continue to need services or new goals for the next school year and would remain in special education. They may also have mastered the skills needed to function independently in a general classroom and can be dismissed. The REED is a mandated review of all existing evaluation data including the initial evaluation, any re-evaluations, classroom observations and standardized testing to determine if dismissal of services is necessary.
