  30. MDS-INTERVENTIONS • COMMUNICATION MATRIX • COMMUNICATION SKILL ASSESSMENT • FOR INDIVIDUALS AT THE EARLIES STAGES OF COMMUNICATION DEVELOPMENT • FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO USE ANY FORM OF COMMUNICATION INCLUDING PRESYMBOLIC OR ALTERNATIVE AND AUGMENTATIVE FORMS • SEVEN LEVELS OF COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE

  31. MDS-INTERVENTIONS • SEVEN LEVELS OF COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE • 1.Pre-intentional (reactive) behavior • Child’s behavior not under their control • Reactions- body movements,facial expressions, general behavior • 2.Intentional (pro-active) behavior • Child’s behavior now intentional but without understanding of communicative effect- • Adult interprets needs from behavior, movements, facial, vocalizations, eyegaze • 3.Non-conventional presymbolic communication • Child uses pre-symbolic behaviors intentionally to express needs • Not socially acceptable as child gets older-body movements, pointing, tugging on people, vocalizations, and gestures

  32. MDS-INTERVENTIONS • 4.Conventional communication • Child uses pre-symbolic behaviors intentionally • Pointing, nodding and shaking head,-difficult for visually impaired adults continue to use conventional gestures with speech • 5.concrete symbols • Symbols resemble what they represent • Can be picture or part of the actual object, sounds, or motions • Physically impaired children use device, point, or eye gaze • 6.abstract symbols • Speech, manual signs, Brailled or printed words • Do not look like what they represent • 7.language • Combines symbols, grammatical rules, understands word combinations

  33. MDS- INTERVENTIONS • Goals for seven levels • 1-establish purposeful behavior- responsive environment • 2-respond to communicative behaviors to make child aware • 3-shape gestures into conventional gestures and symbol use • 4-teach 1:1 correspondence of symbols and referents • 5-teach 1:1 correspondence between abstract symbols and referents • 6-teach combination of symbols into 2 and 3 word utterances • 7-expand semantic and syntactic abilities MASTERY * initiate and respond appropriately to interactions with people * initiate actions upon objects and structures, respond to problems and demands presented by the environment

  34. MDS-INTERVENTIONS • Design to Learn • Design Profile –Environmental Inventory • Transitions • The activity • Adult’s interaction • Communication system • Peer interaction • Opportunities to communicate • Opportunities to use objects • materials

  35. MDS-Design to Learn • Seven principles for promoting functional and spontaneous behavior • Capitalize on the learner’s natural preferences, motivations, and affinities • Allow the learner as much control as possible over environment • Shift stimulus control of target behavior toward environmental stimuli that may occur naturally • Ensure learner has means to communicate that is appropriate to sensory, cognitive, and physical abilities • Provide comfortable and predictable environment • Remain alert and available to interact and respond • Respond to learner’s communication appropriately

  36. MULTIPLE DISABILITIES SUPPORT-TRANSITION • TRANSITION-BRIDGE TO ADULT LIFE • TRANSITION PLANNING BEGINS IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL • IEP MUST ADDRESS TRANSITION AT AGE 14 • THREE AREAS FOR TRANSITION • POST SECONDARY EDUCATION • EMPLOYMENT • INDEPENDENT LIVING

  37. MULTIPLE DISABILITIES SUPPORT-TRANSITION • One of the primary purposes of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) is to:“ensure that all children with disabilities have available to them a free appropriate public education that emphasizes special education and related services designed to meet their unique needs and prepare them for employment and independent living.” (34 CFR §300.1(a))

  38. MULTIPLE DISABILITIES SUPPORT-TRANSITION • EFFECTIVE TRANSITION PLANNING IS KEY • Special Education Services are ultimately intended to prepare students with disabilities to meet the challenges and opportunities of living, working, and participating fully in community life.

  39. MULTIPLR DISABILITIES SUPPORT-TRANSITION • TRANSITION PLANNING MUST • Identify and link students and families to needed post-school services, supports, and/or programs before students exit the school system. • AGENCY PARTICIPATION AT IEP MEETINGS WILL PROMOTE PARTNERSHIPS WITH COMMUNITY SUPPORTS

  40. MDS-SUMMARY OF TRANSITION REQUIREMENTS OF IDEA • Provide instruction, related services, community experiences, adult living, employment, and daily living training to students while in high school. • Assist students and families in making linkages to services needed after high school. • Increase chances for students to be successful once they exit

  41. MDS- TRANSITION • VOCATIONAL PROGRAMS • STUDENTS LEARN RESPONSIBILITY • HIGH SCHOOL 14-17 YEAR OLDS BEGIN AWARENESS OF SPECIFIC JOBS APPROPRIATE FOR THEIR ABILITY • COMMUNITY BASED INSTRUCTION INCLUDES FUNCTIONING IN THE COMMUNITY AND INDEPENDENT LIVING SKILLS • SOME STUDENTS PARTICIPATE IN SUPERVISED, APPROPRIATE SCHOOL BASED JOBS • GOAL TO TEACH STUDENTS TO PARTICIPATE IN THEIR DAILY CARE AND LIVING ACTIVITIES AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE

  42. MULTIPLE DISABILITIES SUPPORT-INCLUSION • STUDENTS IN MULTIPLE DISABILITIES SUPPORT PROGRAMS BENEFIT FROM PARTICIPATION IN ALL SCHOOL ACTIVITIES AND EVENTS • IDEA gives all children with disabilities the right to a Free and Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) in the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) • PLANNING MUST OCCUR TO PROVIDE APPROPRIATE INCLUSION OF STUDENTS IN MULTIPLE DISABIOLITIES SUPPORT PROGRAMS IN REGULAR EDUCATION AS MUCH AS APPROPRIATE AND POSSIBLE • NON-DISABLED PEERS • CORE CURRICULUM

  43. MDS-PROGRESS MONITORING • DATA COLLECTION IS REGULARLY SCHEDULED IN MULTIPLE DISABILITIES SUPPORT CLASSROOMS • GOALS AND OBJECTIVES • OBSERVABLE • MEASURABLE • CRITERIA FOR MEETING TARGET • INCLUDES CONDITION AND PROMPTS • PROMPTS • ENVIRONMENTAL,SETTING, MATERIALS • VERBAL-DIRECT AND INDIRECT, PICTURES OR DEVICE,SIGNS • GESTURES • MODEL • PHYSICAL ASSIST TO INCLUDE HAND OVER HAND • PROBES TAKEN WEEKLY OR BIWEEKLY

  44. MDS-PROGRESS MONITORING • EACH STUDENT SHALL HAVE A BINDER OR FOLDER • DATA COLLECTION SHEETS • COMMUNITY BASED INSTRUCTION • IEP • WORK SAMPLES • TEACHER MADE TESTS INTERVENTIONS PERFORMANCE/MASTERY CHECKS DESIGN TO LEARN INVENTORY

  45. MDS-PROGRESS MONITORING • PROGRESS REPORTING • INFORMAL NOTES TO PARENTS IN COMMUNICATION BOOK • ANNUAL IEP MEETING OR PARENT REQUEST • REPORT CARD CONFERENCES • PROGRESS REPORT FROM EasyIEP • GRADEBOOK REPORT CARD, 4 TIMES A YEAR • MARKS ARE GIVEN FOR GOALS IN DOMAINS • A-ACHIEVED • B-MADE PROGRESS • C-MAINTAINED • D-REGRESSED

  46. MDS –COMMUNITY BASED INSTRUCTION • CBI-COMMUNITY BASED INSTRUCTION • Sites needed determined by IEP goals • IEP goals/objectives are implemented in community settings • Students generalize and practice skills learned • Data is taken for every student • Sites must meet special criteria- • Insurance certificates- ACORD • Accessibility and temperature control • Approved by Office of Risk Management

  47. MDS- ALTERNATIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS • BUSES PROVIDED TO PRE-APPROVED ALTERNATE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS FOR COMMUNITY BASED INSTRUCTION • REQUEST FORMS SENT TO TEACHERS IN SEPTEMBER • REQUESTS MUST INCLUDE JUSTIFICATION AND GOALS FOR EACH STUDENT • PRINCIPAL REVIEWS AND SIGNS • DATA IS TAKEN ON GOALS IN COMMUNITY SITES • STUDENTS SHOULD ALSO HAVE EXPERIENCES IN AND AROUND THE SCHOOL

  48. MDS- ESY Extended School Year • ESY must be considered for all students with disabilities. In considering whether a student is eligible, a list of questions must be considered. No single factor will be considered determinative. • Students in complex support programs must have this eligibility determined prior to February 28, for the ESY year. If this determination is not part of the annual IEP, a NOREP for ESY must be issued. • If the student has a severe disability such as autism, severe intellectual disability ( mental retardation),or severe multiple disabilities, this is a factor considered for eligibility.

  49. MDS- ESY Extended School Year • Other factors to be considered for ESY eligibility • Does the student have a measurable decrease in skills or behavior following a break in programming (regression)? • What is the student’s capacity to recover ?(recoupment) • Will problems with regression and recoupment make it unlikely that student will maintain skills and behaviors? • Did the student master new skills at the point that the educational program would be interrupted? • Is a skill or behavior crucial for student to meet goals of self-sufficiency and independence from caregivers? • Do interruptions cause withdrawal from learning process?

  50. MDS-ESY Extended School Year • Sources for data- • Progress on goals in consecutive ieps • Data of progress before and after interruptions • Reports by parents of negative changes • Medical reports of degenerative-type difficulties • Observations by educators, parents, and others • Results of tests ESY is NOT based on need for day care, respite care, summer recreation, or desire or need for programs not needed for provision of FAPE. If all goals are not met during the year, this does not mean ESY should be provided to meet the goals. This information is provided in more detail is ESY section of EasyIEP.
