Case: SPED Student with minimum testing accommodations Mrs. Daisy is a third grade inclusion teacher. She has a SPED student in her classroom who is not performing on tests and her grades are suffering. The only testing accommodations in place now are small group testing. Mrs. Daisy has tried reading the test aloud to this student before and it makes a tremendous difference. Mrs. Daisy was told to not do this because they needed the negative data to prove that this student would benefit from further accommodations. Mrs. Daisy understands this, but is concerned because this student can not afford for her grades to drop any further. What can Mrs. Daisy do? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Mrs. Daisy should give the student the test without accommodations, and then again with those reading accommodations. That documentation is proof to the specific needs that student has. The more documentation you have to the specific needs of a child are priceless in providing proof as to exactly what accommmodations might benefit that student. Then the teacher has valid and relevant proof to advocate for that child's rights. |
