First of all, after Paul’s eyes had gotten damaged, when he was at Lake Windsor Middle School, he was told he couldn’t play soccer. It started after Paul got his IEP form on page 27, “Paul is entitled to take part in our IEP program.” Instead of telling his mom not to sign the IEP form, Paul just backs off and lets it happen. “I stepped outside to show that I wanted no part of that conversation” (page 27). This choice created led to Paul being kicked off the soccer team.…
General Intellectual Functioning: In order to get an overall estimate of Mr. Smith’s intellectual functioning; an entire WAIS was completed by the patient.

An IEP is developed and implemented because it’s the law and safeguards for students. I believe it is the law because the child with disability has his own specific rights as a human being and the law makes sure these rights are offered. A safeguards for students because they can’t advocate for themselves so the IEP makes sure that all their needs are written and planned for students’ best wellbeing. Friend, M. (2014). Special Education (4thed).…

Her accommodations are the same for all of her classes, and they include extra time, cues, prompts, and a use of a calculator in math. The mother agreed with everything created on the IEP and really was just stressing about how she wanted her daughter to continue trying her hardest. Throughout the meeting, the general education teacher was not very involved at all. I think she was just there as a representative of one of her teachers, but from my understanding, she is new. I felt as if she didn`t say much, maybe because she didn’t exactly know what to say.…
Nowadays it is expected that the word Persons includes everyone no matter what and would clarify any exceptions, but it has not always been like this. Over __ years ago persons did not include women and they decided to improve their rights. The persons case follows five women who try and get the word person to include more than just men. The journey from the beginning to the end of the persons case was a complicated one but was worth it. Five women now called the Famous Five played a big role in this change that happened many years ago.…

“Harrison Bergeron” is a prophetic short story written by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. The short story is set in the year 2081, a time where everyone is equal due to the 211th, 212th and 213th Amendment. People are handicapped so that no person is superior to another person. I feel that Vonnegut Jr. is giving a warning to the current society about the disadvantages of making everyone equal. The school systems of today’s society are already advancing into this direction with accommodations to students that typically struggle in school.…
