  Case: Lower level Learners

I have students who read on a 1st grade level in the 7th grade. This particular student is expected to take the Georgia Milestone like every other student. How can I show progression with this student and still have high, rigorous expectations?

Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If the student does not have a IEP or a 504 plan you may want to get him one to allow for accommodations for the test. Although if he is that low then he should have a plan in place from previous years.

Comments: If I were in this situation, I would do exactly this. The student obviously needs some accommodations for the test if their reading level is that low. The teacher needs to look into getting an IEP for the student.
