In the classroom.
And so that's what makes IEPs so wonderful is your options are limitless, but it also makes it really hard because you're like, what do I ask for?
I don't even know how you would accommodate this, right?
It works better if your general education teachers who are most often implementing these accommodations come up with those accommodations.
What you can do as a parent is instead of researching, like I know that there's a database online of like hundreds and hundreds of accommodations.
Before you go and look for accommodations, what you really want to do is go back to that list of challenges that you think your child is having and really get specific.
And let me give you an example.
A lot of times as an OT, I see these all the times in in Facebook groups, I see a parent saying, What accommodations do you ask for for writing?
And so I have to ask a lot more questions to figure out what accommodations would be appropriate.
There's two different skills.
Well, there's actually a lot of skills, but there's two main differences or segments inside of that writing task.
One of that is the cognitive piece of writing.
Can they understand what they want to write?
Can they organize what they want to write?
Can they remember what they want to write?
Do they know how to spell that, right?
And then there's the physical part of writing.
Can they not form the letters correctly?
Do they have to put so much effort into forming the letter that they can't remember what they were going to write?
There's so many things that when we break down those tasks, we're gonna accommodate that differently, right?
