A school system agrees that a student with a reading disability needs specialized

tutor to address her reading needs. Which important student right has been
violated?
FAPE ( free appropriate public education )
True or False: Services and instruction for students with disabilities must be
provided in the LRE. A general education classroom is not always the LRE for
every student; this decision is made by teams based on the needs and profile of
each particular student. However, teams should carefully consider the benefits of
general education placement for all students with disabilities. Placement in the
general education setting is preferable for students with disabilities because it
lowers costs.
False: Placement in general education is preferable, but not for reasons of cost.
Placement in general education ensures students have access to same-age peers,
grade-level curriculum, and an environment free from stigma.

ADA) provide funding to schools for educating students with disabilities.
False: IDEA is the only law of these three to provide funding for school districts to
offer special education services to students with disabilities.

Individualized education programs

family communication, and Consistent methods to determine whether students are
eligible for English language instruction services
True or False: It is appropriate to place ELs in classrooms with students of
significantly different ages if their overall English proficiency levels are similar.
False: Placement of ELs should be tied to their age, grade level, and ability to
access grade-level content; as a result, they should not be placed with significantly
younger or older children who are learning different grade-level content.
School districts typically administer a home language survey to families in order to
identify any students who may use other languages and should be tested to see
whether they are eligible for English language instruction services. Which question
might typically appear on a home language survey?
What is the language most often spoken by the student?
True or False: Title III requires that all ELs receive instruction in self-contained,
EL-only classrooms rather than in the general classroom.
False: Title III does not regulate how EL services must be provided, and students
can receive support in a variety of ways: self-contained, pullout, push-in, or cotaught instruction.
Title III requires schools to report on the number of ELs receiving services and
their progress toward language
proficiency

True: Dual language, or two-way immersion, is a type of program model in which

Spanish). It is also sometimes called bilingual education. This model is helpful for
ELs and is also sometimes used for native English speakers who are enrolled in
special foreign language programs or schools.
