Transition information (secondary)

Joey’s PLAAFP

Another example: Sally’s specific learning disability and ADHD dx impact her independent reading comprehension in the general education curriculum and her attention in the classroom. Sally takes Ritalin to manage her ADHD symptoms during the school day. She has good comprehension if the story is read to her, but is unable to decode independently. Her parents report that she gets frustrated easily at home when attempting to do her reading homework, but she enjoys being read to at bedtime. Sally did not meet proficiency on the 3rd and 4th grade MCA reading tests, therefore, may not achieve proficiency on grade-level standards during this school year. Sally improved her reading NWEA MAP score from Fall 2010 (1%) to Spring 2011 (10%). On classroom weekly assessments, Sally is able to perform at approximately 80% accuracy when they are read to her. Classroom teacher reports that Sally gets frustrated easily when she is unable to read an unknown word and does not use decoding strategies. Sally says she likes to read about ocean life but feels reading is hard for her.

This is the criteria for the disability area (OHD, EBD, SLD, DCD, etc)
