CurriculumWhat and Where?General education curriculumGeneral education curriculum adapted to focus on the most essential skillsSequenced functional skills curriculumEmbedded functional skills curriculum
InstructionHow?The intervention methods associated with each of the various disciplines, as well as the more multifaceted interventions designed by an educational team collectively.The goal is to enable students with disabilities to participate in a variety of home, school, and community routines, with a variety of people, using the supports and responding to the cues that occur naturally in those settings.
HowTeams need to consider appropriate adaptations and supports (ie. AT, related services) to allow student to benefit from special education.Due to unique learning needs, instructional stategies need to be designed in consideration of special physical, sensory, and health issues.Teams need to have the ability to determine the difference between specific impairments and behaviors. If behavior is identified as the issue, then teams need to implement strategies to reduce challenging behaviorsInstruction
