IEP Tip

[Guest guest]

Just wanted to share something I recently learned: You can ask your district

for a copy of next year's textbook and/or curriculum outlines for the year

to be given to you by the end of this year. That way your child can get a

headstart on topics and vocabulary this summer. I'm planning to use these

with my private SLP over the summer.

We did this for math and social studies in 5th and 6th grade. I never thought

of it as something to add to theIEP. In fact, we didn't even bring it up as

an IEP issue. We simply asked the principal and they loaned us the books over

the summer. We had to return the books in the fall because they were from one

of the classroom sets, but it was great to have them. mostly what we went over

were broad concepts and new vocabulary.
