Case: Math or Reading
A second grade student is a struggling reader, but can complete math facts and problems excellently. When given the formative math assessment, the student failed. He had to read the word problems and he didn't know the words. Should the student be penalized for not knowing the math vocabulary? Or should the teacher read the test to him?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is such a dilemma in the classroom. Despite that, accommodations for testing are different from instructional accommodations so one must be careful when doing so. Also, if an IEP is not in place for the student, those accommodations the teacher gave throughout the year will not be accessible to the student on state standardized tests. As a result, the student may acquire a sense of learned helplessness and have difficulties performing at the end of the year. The student may benefit more from a modified version of the assessment, while receiving reading intervention instruction to address his reading needs. |

| Comments: I agree with this solution because you need to make sure your student is IEP or in whatever improvement program is appropriate and documented so when it comes to more serious testing they are given the same help |

| Comments: If I were in this situation, I would exactly do this. It is good to make some accommodations, however, there has to be a balance. You don't want to baby them too much. They need to be steered towards being able to do the problems themselves. |
