What is DAP?
Developmentally appropriate practice (DAP) is a philosophy and set of practice guidelines based
on that belief. DAP is a framework of principles and guidelines that outline practice that
promotes young childrens optimal learning and development. (NAEYC, 2011a)
What Instructional adaptations and modifications should be made in early childhood
special education classroom?
Providing specialized instruction to remediate delays caused by the childs disabilities
and prevent any secondary disabilities from developing is the cornerstone of what early
childhood special educators do (Sandall, Schwartz, & Joseph, 2000, p. 3).
One effective method for incorporating intentional instruction into typical preschool
activities is called embedded learning opportunities.
teachers should look and plan for ways to embed brief, systematic instructional
interactions that focus on a childs IEP objectives in the context of naturally occurring
classroom activities.
What are service delivery alternatives for early intervention?
In hospital-based programs, early intervention services are provided to low-birth-weight
and other high-risk newborns in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs).
In home-based programs, a childs parents act as the primary teachers, with regular
training and guidance from a teacher or specially trained paraprofessional who visits the
home.
Parents and families are the most important people in an early intervention program.
They can act as advocates, participate in educational planning, observe their childrens
behavior, help set realistic goals, work in the classroom, and teach their children at home.
In center-based programs, a child comes to the center for instruction, although the
parents are usually involved. Center programs allow a team of specialists to work with
the child and enable the child to meet and interact with other children.
* Many programs offer the advantages of both models by combining home visits with
center-based programming.
