  • Lately I have been working with a number of parents and schools during this busy time of year, when IEPs are needing to be revisited and plans for next year put in place for kids with disabilities (take a minute to read my posts about IEPs for some ideas of where to begin and important things to think about during this very necessary, and hopefully meaningful, process). During the conversations I have been having lately, it dawned on me that when people are planning for next year and thinking about what did or didn’t work well this year, the use of paraprofessionals to support kids with disabilities is a central issue that can make or break a student’s success. IEPs that include paraprofessionals must consider quality professional development and the time to do that development effectively for paraprofessionals. Now is the time to start thinking about how that can look, and planning when it will happen. I have a great resource to offer.

  • The i-Skills would hold videos to help individuals communicate and live more independently. Researchers say it will be like a cookbook for everyday tasks. They plan to involve people with disabilities at every level of the three-year project.

    University of Georgia researchers have received more than a million dollars to develop a mobile phone application for people with autism and developmental disabilities. The i-Skills would hold videos to help individuals communicate and live more independently. Researchers say it will be like a cookbook for everyday tasks. They plan to involve people with disabilities at every level of the three-year project.

    Children with learning disabilities (LD), like dyslexia, have trouble understanding words they read. Causes are unclear, but we now know that LD is not due to a lack of intelligence or a desire to learn. While dyslexia is a life-long condition, early identification, support from a parent or teacher, and access to digital or audio books and other learning materials may help your child to improve their learning outcomes and be better prepared to successfully work around their LD.
