Identifying anxiety can be very difficult, and the next step even more challenging: determining what to do if the student's anxiety interferes with learning, which triggers the district's obligations under special education law.
Attorney and former special educator Cynthia Vargas deciphers your legal obligations to identify students with anxiety and outlines best practices for supporting students so they can overcome obstacles to learning. Along with strategies to use in and out of the classroom, you get guidance to:
- Recognize the signs of anxiety and when evaluation is needed
- Evaluate students’ social-emotional functioning for the consequences of anxiety
- Determine and implement appropriate supports, including accommodations, informal counseling, and therapeutic placement
- Identify when new strategies become necessary as the student grows and develops
- And more
