Case: Development Delays??
Kimberly is a Pre-K student that is showing delays in areas of language/literacy and mathematics. She is unable to answer WH questions. For example, when you ask her, "What do you cut paper with?" and you show her pictures of a pair of scissors and glue: She points to the glue or you ask her, "What makes a spider web?" and she says a book. In mathematics, she is unable to match simple pictures of a cat, dog and mouse. This same assessment has been done over and over for the past month with the same results. Her teacher states that she does not talk at all during large group and when asked a question Kimberly just nods her head. What do you suggest the next step should be?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I wonder if Kimberly has had a hearing and vision screening recently? I would suggest a hearing and vision screening. I am a middle school teacher so I am not aware of the protocol for early elementary students; however, can you request testing from the school psychologist or do you have to follow the process of using research based interventions and record progress monitoring like we do in middle school before you can suggest testing? I would also set up a meeting with the parent to discuss possible interventions. |

Comments: All routes need to be explored when it comes to behavioral issues in students. Even medical reasons. It is very possible the student has issues with hearing or seeing. |

Comments: Identifying and intervening is so important in a case like this, there is probably an internal issue rather than a cognitive one. |
