Functionality in the IEPs of Children with Down Syndrome.

Weisenfeld, Richard B.

Mental Retardation, v25 n5 p281-86 Oct 1987

An evaluation of Individual Education Programs (IEPs) for 41 children (ages 7-11) with Down Syndrome enrolled in public schools indicated that the learning of functional skills in natural settings was rarely addressed in the IEPs. No relationship was found between overall functionality and either reported intelligence test scores or age. (Author/VW)
