Book Synopsis
No matter what grade level or subject you are teaching, the students in your class will differ from each other in a variety of ways, such as readiness level, learning style and skill. How can a teacher create lessons to reach all students? Instructional accommodations are the first type of adjustment teachers make to bring learning within the reach of all students.
The goal of accommodations is to: Increase student success by making lessons more accessible to all learners; Individualize instruction by focusing on student’s strengths, learning styles, and unique needs; Maintain high standards without “watering down” the curriculum; and, Increase student engagement by maximizing academic learning time.
