SUMMARY:How to include students with high support needs in grade level regular education curriculum
DESCRIPTION:\nAll teachers must understand what their students need to learn in a given grade level and how to best structure their teaching and learning activities throughout the school year to accomplish this. What and how to teach students with significant cognitive disabilities has been the subject of much debate. Commonly debated issues include whether:\n\n\n\n\nThese students should be held to the same academic expectations as students without disabilities.\n\n\n\nTheir instruction should prioritize grade-level academic content or life skills.\n\n\n\n\nAll students, including students with significant cognitive disabilities, should learn from the general education curriculum based on the grade-level content standards. \n\n\n\nThis presentation will focus on how to improve support for students with autism who have significant learning needs in general education settings. The presenters will identify effective full-inclusion models, common barriers to accessing and implementing these models, and examples of supports for individual students. The presenters will close by sharing resources, advocacy opportunities, and action items for parents, educators, and administrators.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHilary Rockwell Galland (M.Ed, NBPTS, M.Sped) is an experienced teacher and social-emotional learning coordinator who has worked in public, charter, private, and international schools. The importance of creating systemic approaches to help administrators, general educators, counselors, parents, and special-education teachers collaborate has resonated in every academic environment in which she has worked. After earning her BA at Wesleyan University, Hilary completed a Master of Education degree focused on teaching English-Language Arts. She also completed National Board Certification with a focus on secondary and bilingual English-Language Arts. After teaching in Chicago, Taiwan, D.C., the Bronx, and Brooklyn, Hilary returned to school on a full tuition fellowship awarded by Project LEAD to complete a Master of Special Education degree with a focus on improving outcomes for adjudicated youth with learning disabilities. Currently, Hilary is completing a degree to become a Licensed Mental Health Counselor.\n\n\nShannon Ludeman, EdS, PhD, earned her education specialist and doctoral degrees in School Psychology from the University of Washington.
