Case study K.D.by J.D. and T.D. v.Starr, 64 IDELR 107 (D. Md. 2014). The parents of an 8th grade student with ADHD and Specific Learning Disability alleged that the student’s teacher was not implementing the accommodations and modifications specified in the plan and required the student to request the rest of her accommodations. The judge found in favor of the parents that the school district failed to implement the plan. Implication We must implement all components of an IEP or 504 plan, and it is unreasonable to require that a student have to request to use the accommodations that are in the plan to help support success in school .
Essential question How can I accommodate core curriculum so that students with special needs (ELL, 504, RTI, IEP, GT, ALL students) are accessing grade level curriculum while making the best use of their time? You will walk away with: A definition of instructional accommodations and curricular modificationsTeaching strategies for various learning styles A bank of grade appropriate accommodations
