Three very different terms and decisions. 2:04 If you choose homeschooling, anything your district provides for you is a bonus 2:52 Homebound is a placement listed on the IEP that distinguishes your child will receive their IEP services at home. Commonly used for children who have long term illnesses. 4:12 Homebound services are a reduced number of services. Example: State of IL only requires 5 hours per week for a certified teacher to work with a child. You must negotiate for more, if appropriate. 5:04 Remote Learning - a plan put in place due to the current pandemic. 6:16 Often homebound services are reduced, but because it is 1:1 services vs one to many, much more can be accomplished. 7:11 When homeschooling you get to control all of the curriculum and goals. Your state homeschooling laws govern your child’s education. 8:28 Homebound plans are still very much a team decision for what a child is working on in all areas. 9:08 We need to get creative in remote learning plans and adjust curriculum, activities and data collection, as needed. 10:48 Just because you make a choice on homeschooling, homebound or remote learning now, doesn’t mean that you have to stick with it long term. 12:13 You can make the best decision possible at this time and there’s no shame in changing your mind.
