For additional guidance on choosing the appropriate program and/or
strategy for your students, please contact your Instructional Coach.
The following top-down topic webs have been created to offer guidance for
choosing the appropriate research based program or strategy to address
students’ needs as gleaned from students’ IEP goals and formative and
summative assessments. The webs will also aid in the horizontal and vertical
alignment of services that are offered to students as they transfer or are
promoted to other schools within our district.
While much attention has been given to developing this resource, we
understand that each student is an individual with unique instructional needs.
Therefore, please contact your instructional coach if additional research based
options are needed to address students’ individual academic needs.
Placement assessments or links to each are located on the WSFCS EC Professional Development Team
web page. (http://wsfcs.k12.nc.us/Page/285)
