Is that giving special attention to one student or should you give it to all the students in the class? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I believe this kind of accommodation would be something needed on the IEP if it is done during state-mandated tests. Otherwise, I would offer each student a piece of candy during a test to make it fair and minimize attention or embarrassment being drawn to the student.
