Consideration of typical development and achievement of developmental milestones can help staff determine if a student needs a referral for a special education evaluation. This information is often used to select assessments and identify the effects of a possible disability. If eligibility is determined, an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) is developed. IEP teams describe an individual\u2019s strengths, interests, preferences, and needs, while considering the characteristics of a given disability and its effect on a student. The IEP defines the specially designed instruction, accommodations, related services, and supplementary aids and services that will best support a student in accessing and achieving goals aligned with the general education curriculum. When teachers understand the effect of a disability on learning, they are able to prepare the classroom environment and use specially designed instructions to support students with disabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine that your principal has asked you to conduct a professional development session for staff members about developmental milestones for students. Referring to the&nbsp;topic Resources and your research, use the \u201cDevelopmental Milestones In-Service Template\u201d to create a 15-20 slide digital presentation that describes the typical cognitive, linguistic, physical, social, and emotional developmental milestones of children in the grade levels associated with your field of study.<\/p>\n<p>The presentation should address the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Describe developmental milestones and explain why they are important.<\/li>\n<li>For each disability category, describe typical cognitive, linguistic, physical, social, and emotional development and the atypical development of a student with the specified disability. Include examples of how the milestones may present differently for students with and without each disability.<\/li>\n<li>For each disability category, explain at least one specially designed instructional strategy that could be used to enhance academic achievement.<\/li>\n<li>For each disability category, explain at least one environmental strategy (how you would change the classroom environment) to increase success in the classroom setting.<\/li>\n<li>Title slide, reference slide, and speaker notes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Support the assignment with a minimum of three scholarly resources.<\/p>\n<p>Refer to &#8220;Creating Effective PowerPoint Presentations,&#8221; located in the Student Success Center, for additional guidance on completing this assignment in the appropriate style.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;Assessment Description Special education teachers often consult and train staff members.
