Once you’ve determined the specific tasks and have established if the standard tools available to the student are enough, you’ll then want to look at potential modifications, accommodations, or strategies. These do not include assistive technology, but are an important part in building independence for students, making progress toward IEP goals, and providing access to FAPE. Modifications and accommodations are for instructional areas and are not to be considered accommodations for Standards of Learning (SOL) testing. You can find more information on the VDOE’s Website— the link is in our bio on Instagram or our pinned post on Facebook.

Some modifications, accommodations, and strategies for communication include:

✨ Interpreter/transliterator
✨ Verbal prompts
✨ Gestures
✨ Modeling appropriate skills
✨ Repetition of spoken answers
✨ Additional response time
✨ Accept shortened responses
✨ Priming prior to activities
✨ Intervener (for students with deaf-blindness)

🗣️ What are some other modifications, accommodations, or strategies that might benefit a student who requires assistive technology for communication? Tell us in the comments!
