Kid's Health Kids With Special Needs School Issues ... Home Parents Community What I’ve Learned About Cultivating Parent Involvement Educator Max Fischer has found that successful teaching often hinges on employing a wide variety of instructional methods to meet student needs. In this Voice of Experience essay, Fischer reflects on how getting parents involved in their students’ education also requires a variety of approaches. Should Schools Parent Our Kids? Should the community expect teachers and administrators to deal with problems or potential problems that do not directly affect students during the school day? Should parents want schools to take on the role of raising their kids? New Paperback Spotlights Students' Best Writing!

FAMILY MATH
FAMILY MATH one of the EQUALS programs out of the Lawrence Hall of Science, is designed to promote math equity and access to all students, regardless of race, gender, or class. The goal of the program is to promote parents as effective partners in helping their children succeed in mathematics. It focuses entirely on diverse families learning mathematics together, using inexpensive materials and hands-on, problem-solving activities. Children and adults come together once a week for several weeks, doing most activities in small groups with two or three families working together. Best of all, they put into practice at home the ideas they've developed in class. FAMILY MATH activities illustrate concepts that reinforce the school math curriculum and demonstrate the importance of mathematics to future work and education.
FAMILY MATH transforms student attitudes toward mathematics, gives parents a sense of confidence, re-energizes teachers, and builds community. For more information on setting up or participating in a program, or to obtain FAMILY MATH publications, please communicate with:

GEORGIA RESOURCES FOR CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS l. Educational Services Educational services for children with disabilities are provided under IDEA (Individual with Disabilities Act). IDEA is a federal law which requires that a free and appropriate public education be available to children and youth with disabilities in mandated age ranges. This includes special education and related services. a IFSP Funds are available to cover mandated services for eligible children when no other resources are available. At age three, eligible children are transitioned to other public and private programs to insure ongoing provision of needed services. Local offices are assigned by county or health district. Referrals are accepted from parents, hospital nurseries, pediatricians or other medical personnel, child development centers, etc. http://www.ph.dhr.state.ga.us/programs/bcw/index.shtml/
b. Special Needs Preschool. Part B of IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Act) provides for testing, placement in the least restrictive environment and an individualized education program IEP through the local public school system for children with disabilities ages 3 to 5 years. Contact is made through the "director of special needs preschool" or "preschool coordinator" of the local school system. Local phone numbers can be found in the blue pages under "education" or "school system" of the county in which the child lives. Note: It is frequently around age 2 1/2 to 3 years of age that concerns become pronounced and parents and primary health care providers are able to identify problems in development, speech or attention. Parents should not hesitate to contact the local schools to express concerns and request an assessment to determine eligibility for public school services.

    Add to Book Bag
    From tots to teens, school can often be a challenge for the adopted child. Sometimes it's "simply" a matter of educating the educators about adoption, diversity, inclusion, language, and special educational needs. Sometimes you need to go further and tackle deeply held traditional practices and policies. Either way, ADOPTION AND THE SCHOOLS will help you and your child's teachers make school a better place for your adopted child.

AN EDUCATOR'S GUIDE TO ADOPTION will help teachers to increase their understanding of families built by adoption. It gives them the tools to deal with possibly awkward situations and provides resources for integrating lessons about family diversity into the standard curriculum. Every family with school-aged adopted children needs a copy of this book to educate the educators.
