Background
Jazmine Ruiz is a seven year old second grade student who attends a public school in the Bronx. She is part of the D75 Special Education Inclusion Program. This program allows D75 special education students to follow the general education curriculum aligned with the Common Core Standards. Her classification disability is listed as other health impairments. She receives accommodations and modifications on her assessments as well as her class work and she is accompanied by a paraprofessional throughout the day who provides guidance when necessary.
Reason for assessment
Jazmine Ruiz is a perfect candidate for my formative assessment because she missed a week of lessons on how to add two digit numbers. This gave me the opportunity to tutor Jasmine on adding two digit addition. Each tutoring session was approximately twenty-five minutes long. Throughout my tutoring sessions, Jazmine will learn four different strategies on how to add two digit numbers. The first strategy, Jazmine will learn how to add two digit numbers by drawing tens and ones. Second, she will learn how to break apart the

Jazmine was introduced to two digit addition. My first lesson focused on drawing tens and ones to solve two digit addition. This strategy would provide Jazmine with the visuals she needs to solve the problem. First, I did a quick review on how to draw tens and ones to represent a number. She was given three examples ranging from easy to hard. Jazmine showed no signs of difficulty and was able to complete the task. Then, I demonstrated how to use the drawings to add two digit numbers. I explained how she must draw the picture for each addend. Then, I explained that she must count the tens first and then the ones. She smiled and said “that's easy”. We went through a couple of problems together and Jazmine displayed that she understood the strategy of drawing tens and ones to solve two digit
In order to improve my instructional practices, I analyzed instructional data from district math diagnostic and proficiency assessments. The most recent assessment assessed student’s abilities to count, add and subtract, and their understanding of place value. My students scored below not only the other first grade students at the school, but also all first grade students in the district. 81.6% of my students could count, read, and write numbers to 120. This was an improvement from their diagnostic assessment. However, only 66.7% could relate counting to addition and subtraction, and only 45% demonstrated understanding of place value in two digit numbers.
The three topics I am choosing to compare and contrast are the first 3, substantive law, procedural law, and judicial law. I feel that it will be a simple way of finding international law.
There are two legal terms “search” and “seizure”. The legal term search means to examine another's premises to look for evidence of criminal activity. Under the 4th and 14th Amendments it is unconstitutional for law enforcement officers to conduct a search without a "search warrant" issued by a judge or without facts which give the officer "probable cause" to believe evidence of a specific crime is on the premises if there is not enough time to obtain a search warrant. The legal term seizure means the taking by law enforcement officers of potential evidence in a criminal case. The constitutional limitations on seizure are the same as for search. Thus, evidence
Full Backups: A full backup is a complete backup of everything. Sometimes referred to as a normal backup. This normally takes the longest time to perform (and is typically the largest option).
You say that “The main issues that are to be addressed when dealing with the homeless youth are their concerns as a whole meaning what they believe should be addressed”. What are these issues? I think it may be helpful to define homeless youth with an age range and then include data telling the percentage of people within that age range who are homeless. Also are you targeting homeless youth or homeless children, or both? The reader wants to know why the project is relevant. In order to determine relevance the problem clearly defined and data needs to be used to support the
Expressive (motor) Aphasia is a neurological condition that occurs when words cannot be formed, expressed, or may be absent due to an injury to the cerebral cortex. (Brooks & Brooks, 2012).
Teacher divides the class into five groups. On each group table the teacher puts a set of fractions cards and a set of five labeled small boxes. The boxes are labeled as following (one whole, between one-half and one whole, less than one half, one half, more than one whole).
[As a result of the step by step direction in the reengagement lesson, I want students to be able fully grasp the concept of addition; and how the knowledge of addition can be used to provide answers to expressions that require the decomposition of numbers totaling 8, 9, 10. The state standard that I am addressing in this reengagement lesson is 1.OA.1 Common Core State standards; use addition and subtraction within 20 to solve word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together,
There are many laws out there that cover near enough everything, so therefore with my business I will need to make sure I abide the laws which cover; health and safety, fire precautions, the environment, employee rights, the building, intellectual property (for example business names, inventions and copyrights), fair trading (consumer credit, consumer protection and competition law), keeping information about people, licences and insurance.
Assignment: Design an advertisement for a product, service, or brand. If possible, take a photograph or create a video on youtube that you can link to. Explain how the material of this unit helped you develop a more effective advertisement.
Jayla is a first grade student attending Lake Forest Elementary Schools of the Arts and Sciences. She participates with non-disabled peers in the general education class more than 79% of the time.

Although she is loving and caring , she continues to struggle with interacting appropriately with her peers and adults. She curses on a regular basis, hit other students, and falsely accused others talking about her. When focus, Jayla is able to read, write , spell and work well with minimal assistance.
Melissa is able to do simple subtraction problems like 5-1 but larger numbers in subtraction is problematic for this student. I demonstrated to her two approaches to subtraction problems. First, is applying the counter and the second is by drawing pictures on a scrap paper. This allows her to see how to subtract the numbers. For example, 15-3 I drew 15 circles and I explain to her to cross out 3 circles. Then explain to her to count how many circles are left. The few homework, I assisted Melissa had word problems. I helped her by underlining keywords in the word problem and on a side piece of paper I wrote sum=total, less=subtract (-). If she sees certain keywords she will understand what type of problem she is solving. With practice, Melissa will be able to do these types of math problems quickly. She eventually started to understand the math problems with some
This novel was a 4 year long research in culturally diverse school district that examines the inconsistency of placement of African American and Hispanic students in special education.

She does not exhibit behavioral problems.
The idea of children with disabilities, whether they be mild or severe has been a very controversial and misunderstood topic. In the past inclusion has brought about huge changes for not only the students, but also the parents and families of these children, and staff at schools. Teachers and education professionals were the first to really feel the wrath and intimidation of this dramatic shift in education. There were several different factors that were coming about that made it very difficult for schools and teachers, the unorganized mandates were strict and didn’t allow much time for change. “President Gerald Ford signed the Education for All Handicapped Children Act (EAHCA) into law in 1975. Since the original passage of the EAHCA, the law has been amended four times and renamed the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)” (Conroy, Yell, Katsiyannis, & Collins, 2010, para.1).
