Developmental Delay	In the classroom	Delay vs Disability	Causes
10 When a child does not reach their developmental milestones at the expected times. What is developmental delay?	10 Read aloud often For children with this disability should you read aloud or should the children read silently?	10 A delay may be caused by short lived issues that resolve themselves. Disabilities are long term, you cannot out grow a disability. What is the difference between developmental delay and developmental disability?	10 Premature birth, low birth weight, and not enough oxygen at birth, prolonged labor (more than 24 hours). What are some postnatal factors that put a child at risk for developmental delays?
20 Physical, cognitive, communication, social or emotional or adaptive development. What are the categories of development?	20 (Extend and expand) Modeling words Continuing conversation Ex when a child says "car!" you could say "yes that's a red car! The red car is fast!" How can you help a child's communication skills?	20 Children can enter school with delays. They do not change their classification. Can children still have delays when entering school or are they now considered disabilities?	20 Lead poisoning, poor nutrition, drug and alcohol exposure before birth, difficult family situations, and trauma What are environmental causes od developmental delays?
30 3-9 years of age What is the age range to be diagnosed with Developmental Delay?	30 Diagnostics developmental testing can be done to determine the reason for the persistent delay. If a developmental delay persists and remains unchanged with interventions, what is the next course of action?	30 They may still be eligible for special services through IEP or 504 supports. Do children with delays lose eligibility for special services when they enter school?	30 Chronic ear infection, vision problems, illness, or Injury with long term effects What are medical causes of developmental delays?
40 1 or more How many domains does a child need to be delayed in to meet qualifications for being developmentally delayed	40 As soon as the delay is recognized. Early intervention provides the best possible outcome for the child. When should interventions be utilized with ddevelopmental delays?	40 Not necessarily, she could simply have a delay ion her development that she will grow out of. My two year old is not meeting her developmental milestones, does she have a learning disability?	40 inherited conditions, metabolic conditions, PKU syndrome, Fragile X syndrome, Down's syndrome. What are some physiological/genetic causes of developmental delay?
50 The child must be functioning 1.5 standard deviations (25%) below the mean in two domains or 2.0 standards deviations (50%) below in one domain. What is the functioning level a child must have to qualify for services under developmental delay?	50 False. Developmental delays are often diagnosed in infants and toddlers as well. (True or False) Developmental delays are not usually diagnosed until a child starts school.	50 Not always, sometimes delays are simply periods of slow development that are resolved with a little extra support.
