The STAAR is quickly coming for 2016. It is a rigorous state test for Texas students. One of the best things Texas has done is allowed students with disabilities to have accommodations during the test. However, understanding the basic principles of accommodations can be overwhelming. Is this allowed? Who can have the accommodation? Questions like this run through your mind.
{Note: The decision to use accommodations during state testing is made on an individual basis. Take into consideration the needs of the student and whether the student routinely uses the accommodation during classroom instruction and testing. In addition, the student must meet criteria set by T.E.A.}
I have tried over the last couple of STAAR testing years to make accommodations easy for you.
The triangle on the Texas Education Agency has tons of information. It can be printed and placed in a binder. That is how I used to do it. But one day I had a wonderful idea to make the triangle into a flip book. It has made life so much easier for me and my teachers.

Do you still have this flipbook? The only thing I see on your blog is the writing accommodations.
I'm also inquiring about he math flip book. i went to tpt but only got the
Math Accommodations Made Easy- Build a Folder but does not look like the flip book.
I would like the STAAR accommodations flip book. It sends me to TPT, but it’s not there. I’ll gladly purchase it, just can’t find it.
