SPE 300 Wk 3 – Summative Assessment: Exceptional Student Case Study

Before a student is referred for special education, a general education teacher must complete certain steps to ensure only students who truly need special education services receive them. There are observations, assessments, and interventions to facilitate and gather data from to measure student growth or lack of growth. And, typically, the general education teacher will complete a referral form to “bring the student” to the intervention assistance team or the RTI (Response to Interventoin Team) and discuss his or her concerns.

 

This 3-part assignment provides you the opportunity to follow the typical path that an elementary-age student may take if he or she needs to be evaluated for special education services.

 

Complete Parts 1–3 below. Label each section as Part 1, Part 2, Part 3.

 

Part 1: Student Profile

Select the following characteristics for your fictional student:

  • Male or female

  • Elementary grade level (between grade 2 and 6)

  • The student is suspected with possibly having a specific learning disability (SLD) in reading.

 

Write a 350- to 525-word fictional student profile that includes the following:

  • General student information (gender, grade, exceptionalities, etc.) and literacy skills (should be 2 years below grade level)

  • Cognitive, learning, and social characteristics and language development history (Consider your fictional student’s low literacy skills.)

  • Description

  • Justification for use

 

Part 3: Referral and Evaluation Summary

Your fictional student has not made the appropriate progress he or she should be making, and you feel that there may be a need for an evaluation for special education services. At this point, there is a process with specific procedures that your school must follow, as stated by special education law that will guide the next steps.

 

Write a 350- to 525-word summary that outlines the referral and evaluation process for special education services.

 

Include the following information:

  • Explanation of:

  • Referral request, next steps, and required time frame
