What’s One IEP Accommodation You Couldn’t Live Without?

  • Every kid is different, but sometimes we hear about an accommodation and think, why didn’t I ask for that?!
  • What’s an accommodation that has made a huge difference for your child?

More ways I can help with your IEP or 504 Plan

The thing my child had the biggest need for was reminders to use the bathroom as well as the ability to carry a water bottle.  What's ironic is, with COVID, the school turned off all the water fountains and EVERYONE started carrying a water bottle.  Water bottles were banned by the school many years ago because kids would put things other than water in them and you can't learn if you're drunk.  They talk about pendulum swings in education.  Makes me think this is going to be one.

Extra time on tests was a game-changer too.  Anxiety slowed her down.  Extra time leveled the field.

Preferential seating. Written as something to be established by both student and teacher so that it actually works.

I know it's often a joke these days, but when it's done thoughtfully, it's wonderful.

My son has a standing desk with the ability to pace the back of the class in his 504. It really helps him focus.
