The ASD model is one where teachers from the schools use research based content and deliver intervention/remedial instruction to students in small groups. Pre/post assessments are used to determine growth and success of interventions. Instruction will be both small group and computer-based depending upon the needs of the individual students. Monthly progress reports pertaining primarily to student progress toward academic goals will be shared with parents. |
