As an early childhood teacher, you must possess understanding of the IDEA disability categories and the early indicators and developmental milestones associated with identifying each. Using this knowledge, teachers can identify developmental and individual differences and recognize some of the typical signs of various disabilities when interacting with children from birth through age 8. These observations can then be shared with families to discuss risk factors and potential early interventions that can be implemented with the child.
