I believe that there are other questions to be addressed, but a known fact is that the student has difficulties with writing and speech. So questions should be addressed to the Speech/ Language Therapist or Speech Pathologist and an Occupational Therapist to help determine if assistive technology devices is needed. They may have a good idea of a type of device to use if it is needed. For right now, we could brainstorm and come up with a few assistive technology and possibly introduce it to the child and evaluate its use in the child's environment. By doing this we can establish and hone into the strengths and weakness, as we determine which assistive technology to use.

Very thoughful regarding the types of services. Also, like the rest of our classmates, we need more information regarding Sara's PLAAFP. If this scenario ended up at an IEP meeting (and it most likely will as placement is the issue) we would end up starting from the beginning with assessment scores.
Input from the Occupational Therapist would be very helpful. Since we cannot say what is causing Sara's difficulty in learning cursive, an occupational therapist would be able to tell us what she might need
