I am a sped teacher & have a 1st grade student that has pullout minutes(45mins 3 days a week), extended time & small group testing. He has been struggling this school year & as I was talking with his reg Ed teacher she asked me if he was considered reg Ed or special Ed.??She said if he was reg Ed he needed to be able to do what all the other 1st grade students are doing. What would be the most appropriate response to this question?? The student is very capable. He just needs a little extra support in order to be successful.

Kt What does it matter? It sounds like he is a student who struggles and needs support. Where ever that support comes from. Does he have an IEP?

Spec Ed BED A spec ed student is supposed to struggle with reg ed material. A spec ed student has a disability that impacts learning. If the child is being pulled out, he is receiving the extra support he needs. Perhaps his IEP goals and strategies are not clear. On the whole, a spec ed kid will be behind when compared with his nondisabled peers.

sped If a student has an IEP, then he is a "special education" student. This teacher should know this, even if she is new.

The real question is: Why does his label matter? He needs to be able to do what the other students are doing regardless of label. That is what the IEP is there to support.
