TACKLIN' Assessment (Therapists Actively Consulting & Knowledgeably Leading INdiana)

There are many resources that can easily be found in response to any number of questions, especially when searching the world wide web. It is important to find quality resources that inform and assist in making decisions that will impact educational provisions provided to ensure the student is functioning at their optimal learning level. Example questions may include: How do I know if my student has additional needs beyond Deaf or Hard of Hearing? Is it possible to    separate my student’s hearing or access needs and language delays from something else that could be impacting their learning?   

Do not hesitate to ask the questions, be diligent in your quest for the answer and remain open minded to different ideas, such as using techniques or adapting ideas for your student from various resources to address some sensory processing, attention, executive function or vestibular needs. It does not mean that your student meets the criteria for diagnosis but that you have simply found something that makes it click for your student. DO WHAT WORKS!
