Interview a kindergarten teacher discuss two students who may benefit from additional assistance with literacy development (reading and/or writing). If possible, select a student who may have signs of dyslexia. These can be students who receive services, gifted students, or students that need additional help.

Discuss data the Kindergarten teacher has about each student, including observations, assessment results, family input, and any other information they can share. Include the following information for each of the students:

• Academic strengths and needs (including, but not limited to literacy).
• Developmental level, including delays, strengths or accelerations, as well as social-emotional development.
• Any diagnoses or services for which the student qualifies (based on IFSP, IEP, or 504).
• Contextual factors, including culture, community, and family background,
• How you could partner with the student's family in assessing the student's strengths and needs.
