#092: Accommodations vs. Modifications in an IEP: What You Should Ask For

June 13, 2023 • Jessika Shields, Founder & CEO of Stronger Minds, Stronger Youth • Episode 92

If you have a child on an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) then you know how important it is for the right accommodations and modifications to be in place. Even if your child is in an intervention program or on a 504 Plan (which I discussed in a previous episode), accommodations can still be made to support their learning success.

In this episode, I tell you the difference between modifications and accommodations and then I share with you some very practical accommodations that you should ask for at your child’s next IEP meeting. Whether it is an Initial meeting or an Annual meeting, based on how your child best learns and where their struggle areas are, these accommodations are a great resource. Link to resources below.
