Center for Learning & Leadership Learn & Lead “Robbie” A young man “Robbie” just enrolled in your school and has been assigned to your classroom. He is enrolled in the 5th grade but is smaller than the rest of his peers. Robbie is smiling and carrying his backpack. He stays close to his mother and grandmother, who are important to him. Through talking briefly with Robbie and his mother, you find out he is great at building things, loves trains, and has a very inquisitive nature. He has difficulty with reading, but enjoys it and wants to read – he even has his own library card! He especially likes science. He likes being outdoors. Robbie and his mother have brought you a copy of his IEP. Special services he should receive according to this IEP are specialized instruction in reading and mathematics and related services in speech and language and occupational therapy. During the first week with Robbie, you find he is usually playing alone. Digging further, you find his social skills are not good. It doesn’t seem that he knows how to play with others. Some peers have also started teasing him and he stays near you now. He offers to help in class and smiles a lot when praised.
