▪ In Florida, all students with disabilities have the opportunity to work toward grade-level academic standards.
▪ Students with disabilities may use accommodations during instruction and assessment.
▪ Accommodations meet the individual student needs and ensure equal ACCESS to the academic content standards
Access… It’s the Law!
• Individuals with Disabilities Educational Act (IDEA)• Individual Education Plan (IEP)• Section 504
![Page 8: Dealing with Differences: Secondary Strategies That Work!](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bf991a28abf838c91c26/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Florida’s Multi-Tiered System of Support
MTSS is the systematic use of assessment data, through the problem-solving process, across districts and schools, to effectively allocate resources for providing high-quality instruction and intervention aligned to student needs.
Differentiated instruction (DI)
Universal Design for Learning (UDL)
Accommodations
Both a philosophy and a way of teaching that respects and responds to the different
learning needs of students and expects all students to
experience success as learners.
An educational framework based on research in the learning sciences, that guides the
development of flexible curricula that meets the needs of all
learners from the start.
Changes to instruction or the learning environment
that enable students to access content standards and
demonstrate performance. They are used with students receiving special services through an IEP
or 504 Plan.
• DI, UDL, Accommodations Support All Tiers of MTSS• High Expectations for All Learners
• Access to Academic Standards for All Learners• Increased Student Achievement for All Learners

When Considering Accommodations...
Gain input from:
▪ Parents
▪ ESE staff
▪ General education teachers
▪ Career and technical education teachers
▪ The student!▪ Consider the needs of
each student with disabilities on an individual basis.
![Page 18: Dealing with Differences: Secondary Strategies That Work!](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697bf991a28abf838c91c26/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
▪ Accommodations–Must be necessary–Should facilitate accurate demonstration of knowledge and skills
–Must not provide an unfair advantage or compromise test validity
–Should be the same, or nearly the same, for instruction and assessment situations

Accommodations And the IEP team
▪ What instructional and assessments tasks are difficult for the student to do independently? Are these difficulties documented in the present level statement?
▪ Why are these tasks difficult for the student?–Critical Elements (cognitive, motor,
sensory, social or emotional, and communication elements)
▪ What Accommodations will allow the student to access the information and demonstrate performance on the tasks?
▪ How will the IEP team know if the accommodation is effective?

▪ FSA ELA Writing Component: Students with an oral presentation on their IEPs or Section 504 plans may have the directions and prompt read aloud to them. The Writing Component of the ELA test requires that students to read a variety of texts and respond to what they have read. Because this portion of the test assesses reading skills as well as writing skills, the passage may NOT be read aloud to students.
▪ FSA ELA Reading: Students with an oral presentation accommodation on their IEPs or Section 504 plans may have the directions, test questions, and answer choices read aloud to them. The reading passage may NOT be read aloud to students.
▪ FSA Mathematics- All mathematics directions, test questions and answer choices may be read aloud to students with this accommodation (this policy has not changed).
▪ For CBT tests, text-to-speech features will be available on the appropriate read aloud portions for students who are assigned this accommodation in the system.
▪ Any portion of test that may be read aloud to students may also be signed for students with this accommodation.
