2. Increase understanding of IEP development and implementation.

3.  Includes the following areas of development:  Communication  Academic  Health/Vision/Motor Abilities  Social and Emotional Status  General Intelligence  Transition Needs  Functional Vision/Learning Media Assessment

4. The following factors must be considered:  Behavior  Vision  Communication  Hearing  Statement of services to address needs in the listed areas.

5.  Annual goals are statements of anticipated results to be achieved in a calendar year or less as determined by the ARC. A goal relates directly to the student’s disability and pertains to needs described in Present Levels of Performance.  Short term objectives are intermediate steps which break annual goals into discrete skill components. They are often selected when the skills leading to the annual goal are different. - Guidance Document for Individualized Education Program (IEP)Development (KDE )

6. “Specially Designed Instruction (SDI) in its simplest form is “what the teacher does” to instruct, assess, and re-teach the student.” - Guidance Document for Individualized Education Program (IEP)Development (KDE)  What will you be doing differently for this child that you may not do for all the others.? How will you modify your instruction?

7. … “what the student needs” in order to advance appropriately toward attaining the goal(s) and be involved and make progress in the general curriculum, to participate in extracurricular and other nonacademic activities, and be educated and participate with other students with and without disabilities. - Guidance Document for Individualized Education Program (IEP)Development (KDE)

8. Special Education Services means the Specially Designed Instructional services identified through the development of the IEP. Upon completion of the IEP, the ARC determines the frequency and duration of services, the service provider, and the location in which the services will be delivered. - Guidance Document for Individualized Education Program (IEP)Development (KDE)

9. Related services are those transportation and developmental, supportive, or corrective services which are needed by a student with a disability to benefit from special education. Related services complement and supplement the Specially Designed Instruction provided to the student. **This may be an approximation of time in terms of minutes, hours, or blocks of time, but may not be a range of time.
