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!) As a special education teacher I understand having the data to prove more accommodations are needed. However, the data is there if before the read aloud she was failing and with the read aloud she is making progress. I would suggest for an IEP and show the data you have collected to prove the read aloud accommodation are needed.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: Agreed, the data has been collected. Depending on the amount of time she has spent using this accommodation, the data has already been collected. Rated On: October 19, 2014 7:52 pm Rated By: aMaDyS
