Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for input and guidance concerning my

daughter's IEP for language. She's 5 and will attend

special ed kindergarten this fall. We do not have

public kindergarten but this is a reverse inclusive

system.

She hasn't been evaluated by a SLP (privately) in a

year and a lot has changed since then. We are relying

on the school now and they have recently lost their

SLP to maternity leave and have someone coming in

twice a week but she isn't clinically certified.

In September my daughter was well behind expressively

and somewhat receptively. She appears to have

processing and word retrieval difficulties. She has

problems following directions and seems to remember

one step out of 2(usually the last one she has heard).

In working with her I have noticed she can't seem to

hear the difference between word sounds, example-buds

on the trees was heard as bugs on the trees. It's as

if she supplies the ending with what she thinks if

would be from words she already knows, make sense to

anyone?

The SLP is currently working on categorizing,

attributes, and sorting which I feel she has a good

handle on. They are also working on sequencing and

directions a lot which is great but this has been for

the balance of the year and I feel there are other

issues too.

She is a visual learner and works well on the computer

at home where she does sorting, categorizing, color

and letter recognition, patterns, and same and

different. A year ago they questioned whether she had

a hearing loss because that was how she appeared (she

was tested by an audiologist and its fine).

Should I have an evaluation done again by an SLP to

see where her strengths and weaknesses really are?
