He requires modified and alternate curriculum to meet his learning needs. He performs much better during his small group instruction time and when he is in the gen ed classroom, he becomes upset, or completes minimal amounts of work. If he had more time in the special education setting with full access to all of the alternate curriculum, it is believed he could make more progress. It is being proposed that he transition his placement to a self-contained classroom with access to gen ed time during specialty subjects to encourage typical peer interaction. I know there is a lot of negativity toward self-contained classrooms, but they are there for a purpose.
