Slide 2 Reflection

Slide 3: I found this slide to be very informational because I didn't know that intervention could start at birth. I feel like it would be difficult to diagnose such a young child. I think it's important that we have the ECSE, so that we can start to help children with those developmental delays and disabilities as soon as possible.
Slide 4: I think this slide is important because a child could be mislabeled. If a child is labeled incorrectly, then that child could be getting treated for a disability that they don't even have.
Slide 6: I think this slide is important because as future teachers, we need to look out for these at risk students. As future teachers, I feel like we should try to get to know our students as much as possible

and try to figure out if there are other things going on at home, so that we can work with the child to give them the best education possible. I think that if we know something is going on with the child, then we should pay close attention to that student, so if they start getting delayed, then we can get them help as soon as possible.
Slide 10: I think this slide is important because of what Peterson says. It is important that we find the right intervention for special needs children, so that we can minimize the affects of their condition, prevent at risk children from developing something more permanent, and prevent the development of a second disability.
Slide 12: I think this slide is important because it shows that early intervention will help students. I also think that this study is important because it changed the way people viewed intelligence.
Slide 14: I think this slide is really important because it lists the facts of how beneficial preschool can be to a child. I think this slide stood out to me because I always though that children didn't need to go to preschool, until I started working at Green Gables. I never went to preschool and I always excelled in school, so I didn't think it was necessary to go to preschool, until now.
Under the public law 99-457 the book says "As we noted earlier, states are not required to report to the U.S. Department of Education the number of children served according to a disability category. Thus, preschoolers don not have to be labeled with a specific disability, such as intellectual disability." I though this was really interesting because I think a child in preschool is too young to be labeled as having a disability because they are still developing.
