Consider the following scenario:
Jeff is a second grade student with a learning disability in reading. His individualized
education program (IEP) includes direct individualized instruction in basic reading
concepts and phonics for 30 minutes per day. The instruction is different from the
instruction his fellow students receive in class and needs to be provided by a special
education teacher, as opposed to the regular classroom teacher.
How should the services be provided? Would it be stigmatizing to remove Jeff from the
regular classroom for 30 minutes per day and place him in a group of other students with
similar needs for reading services? If so, should that stigmatization factor into the decision
on where or how he receives services?
