Which resource is provided by Section 504?
Accommodations or modifications due to a disability
What is one type of English language instruction program or model for ELs?
Pullout instruction
Fatima is an EL student in your general education classroom who is having difficulty with reading, math, and social interaction. She has been in pullout English language instruction classes in your school for two years and has not made significant progress in that time. Your team has tried interventions and support provided in both English and Fatima’s native language of Farsi, and the team is now considering whether to recommend that Fatima be evaluated to see whether she has an educational disability.
If Fatima is found to have an educational disability, which law(s) would apply?
IDEA and Title III
As an EL, which accommodation should Fatima receive, whether she is found to have an educational disability or not?
Modified testing requirements due to her EL status
Which right would be guaranteed to Fatima under federal law if she is found to have a disability?
Free and appropriate public education (FAPE)
Both IDEA and Title III would require the school to work proactively to communicate with Fatima’s family and involve them in her educational planning.
True
If Fatima is found to have an educational disability, federal law will prohibit placing her in self-contained, or segregated, classes.
False
You are the teacher for a student with a disability who receives services under IDEA and starts a fight after repeated other behavior violations. The school is considering expulsion, which would result in removal of the student to an alternative school. Why does IDEA require the school to hold a manifestation determination hearing first?
It is unfair to punish a student with a disability for behavior that may be caused by the disability, and a hearing will determine whether this is the case.
