TASKS TO COMPLETE |

1. Disability |
Please list the name of the disability. Remember it’s the same one you learned about for RF Part 2. The disability I’m learning about is alopecia. |
|
2. Academic Considerations
The student will demonstrate an understanding of the goals, benefits, and uses of assessment including its use in the development of appropriate goals, curriculum, and teaching strategies for young children (Standard 3a). |
Explain the IFSP, IEP, or 504 Plan process of goal creation including all the following: · Diagnosis · Developmental assessments · Disability specific assessments · Example(s) of developmentally appropriate annual goals “The onset of alopecia can be at any age; however, most children are diagnosed with alopecia at 10 years or older” (National Institute of Mental Health [NIMH], 2022). A school age child who has been diagnosed with alopecia can request a 504 Plan. The child’s diagnosis will be reviewed by the 504 team, followed by decisions about if any assessment should be given to the child. Developmental assessments such as criterion-referenced types can be used to determine what strengths and weaknesses a child may have in their overall development. In addition, mental health screenings can be given by the school counselor to assess the child’s social emotional well-being. A 504 plan does not include goals, but instead provides accommodations for a child with alopecia. Specific accommodations for a child with alopecia will be discussed in a later section. There are support staff in schools that can work with a child who has alopecia which could include a school counselor or nurse, and of course the child’s teacher(s). Optional: Include a discussion of support staff and their respective roles which are essential to the child’s achievement of the goal(s). There are support staff in schools that can work with a child who has alopecia which could include a school counselor or nurse, and of course the child’s teacher(s). |
|
3. Accommodations
The student will demonstrate knowledge and understanding of effective strategies and tools for early education, including appropriate uses of technology or assistive devices by describing accommodations for young children with the selected exceptionality (Standard 4b). |
Provide five relevant accommodations that were a combination of: general special education accommodations AND at least TWO disability specific accommodations. 1. The child can wear a hat at school if he or she wants to wear one. 2. The child is allowed to have a “buddy” in the class who knows and accepts them and knows that they have alopecia. 3. The teacher is educated on alopecia to be sensitive and supportive of the child. 4. The child’s classmates can be educated about alopecia through stories, letters, or guest speakers. 5. Parents of classmates can be educated through a letter or video made by the child with alopecia or their parents. All the above accommodations were adapted from The Children’s Alopecia Project: Educational Resources. Retrieved from https://www.childrensalopeciaproject.org/, November 20, 2022. Optional: Include one accommodation related to technology or an assistive device with a photo and a description of how it is used by the child. Using an iPad to take a 5–10-minute break from the classroom demands may be one technology-related accommodation for children with alopecia. Another option related more to the treatment of alopecia, is a new app called HairComb. According to the Dermatology Times website it can track hair loss for children and adults with alopecia. A dermatologist can use this tool to follow a patient’s progression during their treatment for in-office doctor visits and Teladoc visits.

4. Ethical Conduct Toward Students
The student will know about and uphold ethical standards and other early childhood professional guidelines by discussing ethical standards from the P-12 Code of Ethics and/or National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) Code of Ethical Conduct (Standard 6b). |
· Analyze the P-12 Code of Ethics OR the NAEYC Code of Ethical Conduct · Choose one principle and include the specific name of the principle from one of these documents. · Discuss the principle and provide an example of actions an educator would take to uphold the principle. Principle: P-1.3 We shall not participate in practices that discriminate against children by excluding them from programs or activities on the basis on their medical condition. Example: A child who has alopecia should have the opportunity to participate in all programs and activities in the classroom, as well as throughout the school. For example, if the music teacher offers auditions for parts in a school play, then a child with alopecia should be allowed to audition and considered for the part based on their abilities. If a child who has alopecia gets the part of a person who has hair, then changes can be made to accommodate the child. A music teacher who allows the child to audition and seriously considers the child for the part based on their acting abilities is upholding Principle 1.3 of NAEYC’s Code of Ethical Conduct. Optional: Included an example of how an educator might violate the selected standard. If a child with alopecia is not allowed to participate in auditions for school plays since they have a medical condition, then that would be an example of an educator violating Principle 1.3 of NAEYC’s Code of Ethical Conduct. |
|
5. Support and Services The student will understand how to support and engage families and communities through respectful, reciprocal relationships by using community programs or organizations that provide resources and services for children with specific disabilities and their families (Standard 2b).

The Children’s Alopecia Project offers free resources such as mentors and advocates for children who have alopecia and their families. |
|
6. Mission Statements for Support and Services Organizations The student will demonstrate how to engage in informed advocacy for young children and the early childhood profession by providing information about community programs or organizations that advocate and support children with specific disabilities and their families (Standard 6e). |
· Name the group/organization · Below the name copy and paste the mission statement from the website 1. National Alopecia Areata Foundation NAAF supports research to find a cure or acceptable treatment for alopecia areata, supports those with the disease, and educates the public about alopecia areata. 2.

The Brave Barbie encourages young children to play with toys that look like them which families would view as a way to promote positive self-image and boost self-esteem.

1. Disability |
|
|
2. Applying Parts (Amendments B and C) of Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
|
Diagnosis often happens in infancy or early childhood when developmental milestones are missed which signals potential concerns. Children with early locomotor disability receive specialized education as per relevant legislation addressing their unique needs. The Rehabilitation Act of 1973 provides for the 504 Plan catering to children between 6 and 21 years (Cawthon & Randolph, 2023). However, children under six have educational rights under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) for early intervention services and support for developmental delays or disabilities. The act ensures learning disabilities receive appropriate special education services and support to facilitate their development and learning from an early age. Part C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) comes into play when a child from birth up to 3 years old is diagnosed with a locomotor disability (Fiss & Jeffries, 2020). Part C aims to provide early intervention services to support children's development and enhance their functional abilities during the crucial formative years. The focus is on early identification and assistance to help children reach developmental milestones. Once a child turns 3 years old, they transition from Part C to Part B of IDEA. Part B caters to children aged 3 to 6 years and focuses on special education and related services designed to meet unique needs arising from their locomotor disability. These services may entail physical therapy, occupational therapy, and adaptive equipment to facilitate children’s participation in educational settings and improve their overall quality of life.
