Expanding Activities

To better accommodate students with disabilities, use the Expanding Activities tool to plan out how you might modify existing activities. Activities can be made more accessible by thinking about the target underlying skills the activity will develop, considering possible alterations to the activity or components of the activity while still targeting those skills, and controlling for possible external interference. The tool offers a sample activity to help you identify possibilities in each of these areas through a series of questions. It also offers a blank worksheet to modify your own program activities.
