Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute Home Getting to Know Your Classmates with Special Needs by Mary Ellen Leahy Contents of Curriculum Unit 92.01.05: Narrative Lesson Plan 1 Lesson Plan 2 Lesson Plan 3 ... To Guide Entry The primary objective of this unit is to sensitize both students and teachers to special education students and their needs and their rights. Many regular education students and teachers have had limited contact with special education students. They have very little understanding of the various handicaps of children with special needs. The information and activities in this unit will help Non-handicapped students get past their misconceptions and misunderstandings about children with handicaps. Teachers must help their students to understand and accept their peers with special needs. Teaching students about the various disabilities the other students have will foster an understanding of students with special needs. It is ignorance about disabilities and handicaps that breeds fear. Through education, non-handicapped students will learn to respect and understand the handicapped students as individuals. The second objective of this unit is to help the mainstreamed child with special needs to feel comfortable, accepted and confident in his or her classroom.

Fountain (1994) blasted a maryland school district for only to the most severelydisabled children, and The regulations define ESY as special education and http://www.ppmd.org/publications/extended_school_year.html

Extended School Year by Rose Kraft Since the precedent for extended school year programming was set in the Armstrong v. Kline case in Philadelphia, in a large number of instances the courts have been asked to determine the eligibility of individual children for extended school year services. This summary looks at the judicial decisions that have been rendered regarding this issue. Judges and lawmakers have made significant decisions during the last 20 years, which define extended school year (ESY) services for chidden with disabilities. Several district court cases, beginning with Armstrong v. Kline (1979) and culminating with Reusch v. Fountain (1994), shaped the current federal regulations. For the first time in the history of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), these regulations require that ESY services be considered annually for every child with a disability. Each team that develops an individual education plan (IEP) for a child must decide if ESY services are necessary so that the child can avoid regression, a lengthy recoupment of lost skills, or other difficulties that could interfere with the education plan.

To Unsubscribe THE LMI NEWSLETTER Subscribe to the LMI email newsletter Back to Home Archive Index IN DEPTH Title I Funding Problems Highlandtown Elementary School in Southeast Baltimore would seem to be a classic candidate for aid under Title I, the flagship federal program to help disadvantaged students. The numbers are certainly there. About 70 percent of the school's students qualify for free school lunches, a standard benchmark for measuring poverty. But this coming year, the school won't get a dime from the $8.8 billion program. More than 100 Baltimore schools have even higher poverty levels. The district ran out of Title I money before it got to the 765-pupil school. Highlandtown is not alone. Across the country, one in five schools with a poverty rate between 50 percent and 75 percent does not receive Title I aid, according to the U.S. Department of Education, even though research suggests that it is such high concentrations that pose some of the greatest academic obstacles.
