3. What questions should the IEP team consider as they determine the setting(s) for the delivery of services to a preschooler with a disability?
• Where does the child usually spend time during the day? Do any of these settings include typically developing age peers?
• Can the goals and objectives be addressed with the use of supplementary aids and services (special education and related service) in age appropriate settings?
• If not, what other settings for service delivery will meet thechild’s needs?
Environments (cont.) How are these decisions made? What does the law say about this?

more social and language gains.
“Families were developing a different vision for their children - one that attributed their learning to a range of opportunities in places with typically developing children, as opposed to the learning that occurred only in special schools with special teachers.” (Bruder, 2000)
