Answer 1

SInce you have posted multiple questions I am going to answer first three. I hope it helps. Thanks

1. The main ways by which a hard of hearing indiviual can communicate is:

• Speech or sign language
• Finger spelling,
• and speech/or writing/or body language and facial expression.

2. Students with disabilities who receive Integrated Co-Teaching services are educated with peers in the general education classroom. ICT provides students the opportunity to be educated alongside their non-disabled peers with the full or part-time support of a special education teacher to assist in adapting and modifying instruction. The ways for achiving cooperative tecahing are as follows:

• One teacher teaches while the other collects purposeful data
• Educators teach in different small groups
• Class is split, and educators instruct groups

3. The PLOP is an integrative part of IEP. It describes your child’s current abilities, skills, weaknesses and strengths in all the fields i.e academically, socially and physically. It explains how learning issues affect your child’s ability to learn the general education curriculum.
