A new document is available to assist in instructional planning for students who are Blind/Visually Impaired (BVI)! The Instructional Planning Process document may be used by school teams as they are working on individualized education programs (IEPs) for students. It is broken into five sections:
- Student Information: Compile information about the student, including their grade, reading level, academic courses, extracurricular activities, community involvement, medical history, and assessment results.
- Statements for Consideration: Assess whether the student has additional factors to consider, such as difficulty accessing the school curriculum, needing mental/emotional support, or needing to travel within the home, school, or community.
- Prioritization of Instructional Needs: Use the expanded core curriculum categories to begin identifying and prioritizing instruction.
- Assistive Technology: Consider questions related to potential assistive technology needs for the student.
- Team Members and Implementation: Include all team members’ names and roles for implementing the plan.
