MAILING LISTS

Last year, I had a student in my math class who needed the “wordy” questions read to him plus longer time to complete the weekly 15 MC iRAT. Since our class started directly after lunch, my solution was to get him to come to class early by 10-15 minutes. I gave him my iPhone with a voice memo containing my pre-reading of the questions and he simply brought his own headphones which also acted like ear plugs. He was always done at the same time as the other students and never missed any part of the class or announcements etc. Luckily, this fella was super honest so I had no iPhone issues and he liked being in that position of trust but I will use a voice recorder this year if I have other students with issues.

Subject: how to handle RAT's and special needs

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if any one has been in this situation before. I have a
special needs student who requires extra test time in a separate building
through disability services. I'm not sure how to work this with the
iRAT/tRAT because we go right into the team RAT after the individual RAT.
If this student is taking the iRAT individually and gets extended time,
she would miss the team RAT. Has anyone else been in this situation
before? How did you work it out? Thanks!

Best,
Katie Alexander
