If they're struggling with coming up with sentences, okay, that's gonna be accommodated by maybe we do a graphic organizer where they're writing a web and they're saying, okay, this is my topic sentence.
These are some ideas that I have around those, and they're kind of creating sentences so that they have that visual reference.
And then if it's a physical writing, maybe we're accommodating that by teaching them typing instead.
Maybe we're using voice to text.
Maybe we're doing a scribe for a short amount of time, hopefully, because we want to kind of go away from that scribe.
But there's different ways to accommodate that.
What happens is when we aren't specific enough or if we're too demanding with those accommodations and not looking at it as, well, most of these might work, some of them might.
We might have to revisit this in six weeks and throw out the ones that aren't working and then keep the ones that are.
Is that
General education teachers don't understand why they need to do that accommodation.
And they also don't understand the problem that they're accommodating.
Remember that general education teachers don't have a lot of education in special education at all?
They're quite
pretty much on the same level as parents a lot of times where they c they're just as intimidated by the IEP process as parents are because they have no education, but yet they're supposed to do this accommodation thing.
So making a really good connection with that general education teacher and being like, hey, which ones of these are working?
Is this easy to implement for you or is this really hard?
Or hey, I would love to go through this with you and just see which ones are working and which ones we need to throw out.
Even that approach to say, hey, I understand that this isn't going to be perfect means so much because I think so many general education teachers don't want to get it wrong.
They don't want to be in trouble.
They don't want you to go to due process because they're not implementing things.
