  Case: My kid will be labeled "slow"
You are an elementary teacher, and Sarah Readome struggles with reading. Title I services are available, and you have consulted with the Title I teacher. However, Sarah's mom is hesitant to agree. She is concerned that Sarah will be labeled "slow," and she doesn't want any extra attention focused on her daughter. Sarah's mom's permission is necessary for Title I intervention. What would you do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would explain to her the help that her daughter would obtain from these programs and that she can be tested out whenever she improves.
