Hi All,
First of all thank you to those of you who pointed out that the link to the
new LD guidelines I included in my previous email was defective.  Here is
the corrected link that takes you directly to the 20 page guidelines.
http://cms.education.gov.il/nr/rdonlyres/072e4999-2b61-4a96-993e-424fa9103a9
a/136803/ldguidelines12.doc  You shouldn't have to copy this long and
complicated address, but be able to simply click on it in this message.
It's a long document and takes a while to download so be patient.  The
English forms begin on page 8.  

Also, if you have comments about this issue, please write them on ETNI
(although I'll respond to as many as I can manage to my own email address
depending on my work load).  The point is to have a discussion about the
issue and come up with some kind of constructive ways of dealing with it.
I'm sure that Dr. Steiner and other Ministry personnel as well as department
heads in our schools (after all they're our colleagues)  are reading these
posts and I'm also sure that there's nothing to worry about re job security
as a result of what we discuss here.  It is important that they are aware of
how we feel and join the discussion, so please don't hesitate to 'speak'
your mind.

 

By the way, I was informed by a history and Hebrew language teacher in our
school who has 20 ld pupils in his class of 30 that starting this year,
teachers who read tests & other texts to the pupils, give extra time, and
other accommodations the ids are entitled to, will no longer be paid for
this work.  He was told (by Irgun Hamorim)  that it's now a part of the new
labor agreement - Oz L'tmura and Ofek Hadash, and even though our schools
won't be in the new program for another 3 years, we teachers are still
expected to provide this sevice (did I mention WITHOUT BEING PAID???).

 

I'm still waiting for an answer from our union (from Nurit Valenci) and will
update as soon as I receive one.

 

Renee
