Hi all....
It is time for Erin's 3 year eval....and I got consent form from school that I need to sign and return.
They checked off that they would like to do for evaluations :
Speech/language, OT, and Educational Asssessment.
There were other options that they did not check off.....
Observation of child, Health Assemnet, Psycholigical assement and home assesment.
I'm thinkinf of asking for a psycholigical assessment on top of what the three they reccommend.....the description was as follows :
describes the students learning capacity & learnign style in relationship to social/emotional development & skills.
Sounds pretty okay to me. and seems like something that should be done....not sure why they didn't think it should be done.
What do you all think ? Have you had this ? Is it worthwhile ?
Home Assesment description is as follows :
details any pertinent family history and home situations tah may affect the students education and with written consent, may include a home visit.
not so sure about that one....but.....have had a home visitor in the past & it was helpful.....would this evaluation be a "first step" into getting some support in place at home ? By support I mean help with communication things.....
Just curious about what you all have done in past in relation to evaluation consents.....do you feel.....
Consent to anything and everything ?
Consent to NOTHING ?
Consent to only what you want to focus on ?
I don't recall signing this form when she had her first eval 3 years ago....pretty good chance I DID sign it....jsut don't remember it now,
Are there any advantages/disadvantages to giving consent ? Does anyone withold their consent ?
Thanks for any thoughts you have......
