Education Presentation PowerPoint Assignment
Many parents/guardians of students from birth to age 8 do not have a firm understanding of the Individual with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), particularly Parts B and C. Often times general education teachers at the preschool and kindergarten grade levels are the first to identify potential disabilities in students and initiate the referral process. Ensuring that these teachers can accurately explain IDEA and the legal requirements of IDEA to parents/guardians using family-friendly language is a must.
