1.2. Compile an Individual Support Plan for Paul. You have to be specific with your
interventions. Specify the areas in which support is needed, the goal or target to be
achieved as well as the strategy of intervention that you will use as well as the
responsible person. The time frame can be left out for the purpose of this assignment.
Be specific with the goals you set for Paul (remember that Paul will be part of the goal–
setting process). Be realistic and provide solutions that could be implemented. Vague
ideas or plans would not benefit the child. (15)
1.3. How will you, as the teacher, support this learner further? What
interventions/accommodations will you implement in the learning environment
(classroom/school)? In providing your support, consider the different systems of
Bronfenbrenner and how you can access the different systems to support the learner.
