However, when it comes to assessing, there is only so much I can do without practically giving him the answer. This student has difficulty focusing and processing and is developmentally delayed. I want to give him more help so that he may understand the assessment better but I also don't want to overstep when their IEP does not offer any further accommodations. What should I do? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Like others have said, I would speak with the IEP team. A lot of the IEP guidelines and resources are mandated by the state. If there is additional resources that the student can take advantage of they will surely communicate that to both you and the parents/guardians. As a parent of an IEP student if my child needed additional help, outside of the help provided by the school, then I would like to be informed about that so that I may look for outside help myself. For example, my son has speech therapy both in and out of school.
