(Mis)Understanding Labels

<p>As a special education teacher, I have become adept at reading labels. Labels abound on IEPs, little identity markers that denote cognitive skills, psychological profiles, and sometimes physical limitations. Working in a general education classroom, I deal mainly with students with labels such as hearing impaired or speech and language impaired. Students with labels such as Autism or ADHD, most often called an Other Health Impairment in the county I work under. Students with emotional disabilities. Students with specific learning disabilities.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@levibrandonkey/mis-understanding-labels-a81dc35a6660"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
