  4. Just Imagine… • …your child • creating an invitation and introducing themselves and others at the meeting. • clicking a mouse to move from one slide to the next in a Power Point presentation. • discussing strengths, challenges and goals for their life after high school. • facilitating the IEP meeting and mentoring other students.

  5. Student-Led IEP Meeting What are students, parents and teachers saying about student-led IEPs? http://www.imdetermined.org/films/ (“Determined Student Involvement in IEP”) Partnership for Success DVD

  6. How Can You Help? • Learn the ASPIRE concepts. • NEXT • Talk to your child about: • IEP goals. • accommodations. • Encourage them to do the activities needed to participate in the meeting. • Prepare for the IEP using the Pre-Planning Meeting handout.

  7. Positive Actions You can Take? Focus on the positive: We all have unique strengths, talents, gifts, interests and learning differences. Recognize that your child is more like typical kids than different. Use people-first language and language the student will understand.

  8. Supporting Self-Determination Discuss role models and coping and learning strategies. Set high, but reasonable expectations. Praise progress and effort. Encourage them to speak up for themselves.
