Specific diagnosis that I might see for children placed in my classroom are:
Autism Spectrum Disorder, Learning Disabled, Hearing Impaired, Orthopedic Impaired, Visually Impaired, Intellectually Disabled, Emotionally Disabled
Some may be observable behavior such as arms wailing, lack of control of body movements, lack of focus,drooling.
Some accommodations that I might need to do is give them communication devices, books with larger printed words,give them cushioned seats to keep them grounded, speak slow, and be willing to repeat questions and statements.
Some teaching styles that might be helpful are chinking and repetition. If lessons are broken up into separate chunks and taught at intervals and then constantly repeated and reinforced that can help students who have disabilities be engaged and concentrate. i would use ABA style teaching and the Millieu teaching style.

These website seem to support the concepts of NCLB and the right to a free public appropriate education. If the child needs a little bit more than what the school is providing. The school needs to contact the state to have it provided. The IEP plan will make sure that no child will do without in school under any circumstances.

Taking the test was actually a bit stressful. Questions that were asked were things that I was taught ages ago and had to motivate myself to remember. I can imagine what student go through when they have to recall and remember and take tests that are cumulative. These tests are probably popular because students want to see how they measure out compared to other students. I think IQ tests are faulty.
