I've worked as a BIA, Teacher and now a coach...I assess what they can do an accommodation for the things they need help or work on. From additional time on an assignment, to using an adaptive device for a student's writing...All of the accommodations were given to help that student succeed in class. I've always take this approach with all students no matter what. It's an excellent way to approach learning and teaching |

Option 2: As a fourth grade writing teacher, I had a students how used an adaptive device to record his writing. The students needed to learn the device and how to use it to writing for our class and for the assessment to end 4th grade (FSA). At first, I taught how to use it to brainstorm for ideas. Then how to use the device to set-up his writing for full paragraphs and essays. The long of his writing was something he need more work on. We would use the font adjustment to show "lots of writing" in his words. But after demonstrations and lots of practice with (part to whole-then whole to part) he was able to complete a 5 paragraph essay. He ended liking writing, which made me happy and why I teach! |

Option 1: I've had students who could not write information on an exit ticket, so I used turn and talks and listened in on the conversation to hear if the concept was heard and understood from that student. Also if they can explain the concept back to me, then I know he/she got the information or concept. |
