 According to IDEA, all special
education students are to be placed in

 Individual Education Program (IEP)


team must first consider regular
education as the starting point for
placement.

problem/task, or rules for completing


the task

Examples:

Use of calculator for math problems


Simplify directions
Reduce number of choices for answers
2. TIME
 Adapt time given or
allowed for learning or
completing a task

 Example:
Increase time for
assignments and tests
3. SIZE

items to learn or complete

with a specific learner.
