Re:Anyone out there with experience at an IEP meeting in Seminole Count

[Guest guest]

Bring the advocate--and make sure he or she does advocate for you.

I just had an awful iep meeting, so if I was you I would be well prepared and

have the advocate there. You should also tape the meeting. And write things

down, such as say, " Okay, you are saying even though latest research/and best

practice says to have one on one speech therapy for apraxia, let me write this

down, you are recommending " group therapy " in spite of this information? " Write

it down--ask for their reasons and take notes on what they say and read it back

to them---

IDEA also says one on one and or group therapy--------it is not out of line with

the law--it is listed first!
