What are the accommodation on your current IEP? Are they helpful? Do they need to be changed? Do you need to add some based on your future goals?
Go to the following web site. The Job Accommodation Network (JAN) can help you determine possible accommodation for the work place.

Did you complete the 16 personalities assessment? Do you agree with your results and did you record and share them?
A reasonable accommodation is assistance or changes to a position or workplace that will enable an employee to do his or her job despite having a disability. Under the ADA, employers are required to provide reasonable accommodations to qualified employees with disabilities, unless doing so would pose an undue hardship.
Types of Accommodations
Here are four categories of accommodations for different needs.
- Presentation: A change in the way information is presented. Example: Letting a person with dyslexia listen to audiobooks instead of reading printed text.
- Response: A change in the way a person completes assignments or tests. Example: Providing a keyboard to a child who struggles with handwriting when she’s writing an essay.
- Setting: A change in the environment where a person learns. Example: Allowing a person with ADHD to take a test in a separate room with fewer distractions.
- Timing and scheduling: A change to the time a person has for a task. Example: Providing extra time on homework for a person who has slow processing speed.
What are the accommodations on your IEP? You should know what they are and when to request them.

Review and score your rating scales. Social skills total is 87 and Executive Functioning 84. Count you total number you rated yourself and divide by the totals for each. For example if you scored 65 in social skills you will divide 65 by 87 and you should get a decimal. Move the decimal two places to the right, drop the decimal and add a % mark.
Social skills total 87, my score 65, divide 65 by 87 = 0.747126, 74%
Make sure you save and share your transition assessments!

We reviewed the connections rating scales. Please print or download the rating scale and complete it electronically or on paper. Each student will complete the scale based on having adult expectations without support. Students will then ask a trusted person to complete the scale on them. Next week we will tally the scale, figure out the percentage, compare the two perspectives and then keep the information for the future. Next year students will complete it again to see how much growth they have made.
