Read over the scenarios and respond to the questions.

My name is Alex and I am 17 years old. I have cerebral palsy and I use a motorized wheelchair. Several times a day I go to another room where I go up into a stander which helps strengthen my muscles. I take medication at school. Since my hands do not work well, someone needs to feed me. I understand everything that you say to me and I can talk but you would have a really hard time understanding me until you get to know me. Just like most guys, I notice pretty girls. I am a 49ers fan and look forward to going to the prom at the end of the year.

  • Would Alex need an IEP or a 504 plan? Why or why not? Be sure to include pertinent aspects of the history of special education and learning theories in your response. (20 Points)

My name is Mary and I am 5 years old. My mother wants me to have fun at school and have friends too. I was born with down syndrome and I will start kindergarten soon. I am funny and cute and lots of people want to play with me so you can imagine I will do well in kindergarten. My mother is scared for me because the school might be a challenge in some ways but she is not sure.

  • Explain how the RTI and MTSS models might come into play in this situation. Compare and contrast how Mary is likely to be treated today compared to how she would have been treated in the year of 1970. (20 Points)

I am Jose and I am 9 years old. I love to laugh. We just moved here from Mexico and I don’t speak much English. I have made friends with some kids in my neighborhood who speak mostly Spanish and some English. I had lots of trouble learning when I went to school in Mexico so I dropped out after 2nd grade and worked with my dad and uncle at their store. They said I did okay.
