4. Scheduling Accommodations
Changing time allotment, schedule of tasks and assessments, and
management of time are some types of scheduling accommodations.
Examples: extending time for assignments; providing breaks in
between tasks; providing a visual schedule or checklist of individual
responsibilities; providing predictable routines and procedures;
providing an electronic device w/ alarms and cues.
B. Modifications
• Curriculum modifications are provided for students with
significant or severe disabilities where content
expectations are altered, and the performance outcomes
are changed in relation to what are expected of typically
developing students of the same age (DEC 2007).
• Curricular modifications include changes in instructional
level, content and performance criteria, as well as the
breadth and depth of content being learned by students.
• Educational teams responsible for instructional planning
may indicate curricular modifications in the student’s
Individual Educational Plan (IEP). Such modifications
are needed so that students also have access to the
general education curriculum .
