Differentiation

After discussing my Unit 8 summative assessment with a middle school Special Education teacher, we decided to make some slight changes to the original test. One main difference is that I will allow my exceptional students to use their notes on this test. This will assist them with vocabulary and geography. For the fill in the blank portion of the test, we thought it would be helpful to remove the extra words from the word list. This way they will still have to locate the correct answer, but they won't have the additional challenge of looking through words that will not be used. The Special Ed teacher also suggested removing the short answer portion of the test because this concept of the additional land acquirement is covered in the multiple choice section. She also helped me come up with an alternative essay question. One that will still cover the main objective for the Native American portion, but in a simpler form.
