Ensuring Success

Supportive Team is Crucial!

It is crucial that the adults in a 2e learner's life collaborate with each other!

• Include both gifted education and special education representatives as members of the child study team.  
• The composition of the MTSS team will vary depending on the student needs.  For example, students on 504 plans, may be an interventionist instead of special education.  There may be a mentor who plays a key role in the student's life.  The idea is to get the best picture of the student to support the learner. 
• Recognize and write strength-based goals.  This should be done first.
• Define interventions to meet strength based goals.
• Write goals for scaffold and support the disability.
