I'm doing reading intervention with a dyslexic high school student who is an emerging reader. Today he let me know he is preparing for is tractor training test and he asked me if accommodations for students with learning disabilities apply. Can you tell me what accommodations are available if any? Thank you!

Expert Response
Hello,
We are happy to make any accommodations that the students need. In the past we have read the test out loud to students that needed the help. We also, give every student the opportunity to go back and use the book to correct the test answers that they got wrong after the first try. Both of us that facilitate the tests have been classroom teachers in the past and have experience with helping students with learning disabilities.
