Scenario

This topic addresses establishing the conditions for students to learn and demonstrate what they

know and can do.

The scenario is that you are a general education teacher teaching mathematics to three 3rd-grade

classrooms, totaling 77 students. That is to say, the students from three different classrooms

rotate to your room for 90-minute blocks of mathematics instruction. Across the three

classrooms, you have 15 students who have accommodations documented in either their

individualized education program (IEP) or Section 504 plan. On average, each student has three

accommodations. The most common accommodations across the 15 students are listed below.

• Extended time on tests and assignments

• Read and/or paraphrase directions

• A scribe to produce written responses on assignments and tests

• Complete tests in a small group

• Preferential seating

Additionally, three students have modifications. In each instance, the modification involves the

student working to acquire kindergarten/beginning 1st-grade mathematics content. Each student

is characterized as having a moderate-significant disability and is accompanied by a

paraprofessional in a general education classroom.

A special education teacher has been assigned to work with the third-grade teachers and students.

She creates her schedule based on the content in the IEPs of the students who receive special

education services.

Directions

For this assignment, you are to write a 1 ½ page, single-spaced paper addressing two matters

about the topic, “Accommodations and Modifications.”

1. You must explain the difference between an accommodation and a modification and

describe the four types of accommodations.

2. Based on the scenario presented above, discuss a minimum of three issues that

immediately come to mind as you consider how you will address the implementation of

the students’ accommodations and modifications. One of these issues must be your

thoughts regarding the role a special education teacher at your school would fulfill in

supporting you in providing these students’ accommodations and modifications.

Work through the content in the References section below to acquire the necessary knowledge to

address these two matters.

In addition to the directions you are currently reading, refer to the Microsoft Word template you

must use to write your paper. I have placed this template in the directions for this assignment

presented in the aforementioned Canvas assignments modules. The template contains all of the

proper formatting, which is as follows:

1. Your name, the paper’s title, and page number are to be listed in the header.

2. Use 1” top, bottom, left, and right margins.

3. Use the following font: 12-point Times New Roman. Use plain text for the content in the

body of the paper and bold text for the headings.

4. Single space throughout the entire body of the document, and indent the first line of each

paragraph.

5. Place the following two headings flush left and in bold text: (a) Distinguishing

Accommodations From Modifications and (b) Three Issues About the Classroom

Scenario.

6. Write in complete sentences throughout the paper

You will note that I put example text in the template. To efficiently use the template, replace my

example text with yours. Begin by putting your name in place of the words “Your Name” in the

header, and then replace all of the example text I put under the two headings.

Grading Criteria

The assignment is worth 50 points. I will evaluate the paper you submit in Canvas based on

proper grammar (i.e., spelling, punctuation, sentence structure), content (i.e., properly addressing

the required content in each part of the paper), and formatting. A copy of the grading criteria is

available in the directions for this assignment, which are presented in the aforementioned

assignment modules.

Finally, ensure you do not exceed the 1 ½ page limit. I will not consider anything you write

beyond 1 ½ pages and will deduct points for not properly formatting the paper.

Contact me with any questions you have about the assignment.
