SLI
Specific language impairment (primary language impairment)
impairment is not secondary to other developmental disabilities
the sequence of language development in children with SLI is the same as that of TDchildren however problems are seen in specific components of language
describe intellectual disability (ID)
"disorder with onset during the developmental period that includes both intellectual and adaptive functioning deficits in conceptual, social, and practical domains."
could have genetic syndromes, chromosomal abnormality, prenatal impacts
goals of treatment in ADHD could focus on
auditory processing skills, pragmatics, and expressive language organization
step 1: child is identified for possible need for services
step 2: evaluation of the child
step 3: decision of eligibility
step 4: child is eligible
step 5: IEP meeting scheduled
step 6: IEP meeting held and written
step 7: IEP carried out and services provided
step 8: progress measured/reported
step 9: review of IEP (at least once/year)
step 10: reevaluation (at least every 3 months)
