This event was planned to address State Goal #2 of our 2016-2017 sub-regional CoP plan.
Staff often have to create accommodations or modifications for students they are working with. This workshop will review definitions and differences with terms often used such as differentiated instruction. Examples of specific accommodations and modifications will be shared, along with a framework to help brainstorm new ways to assist students in the classroom. Case studies and other activities will be completed during this session that focus on practical application.
This training is partially funded with a grant from MDE using federal funding, CFDA 84.027A, Special Education - Grants to States. This event does not necessarily represent the policy of the federal Department of Education or the state Department of Education. You should not assume endorsement by the federal or state government.
