6. Curriculum Same for all students regardless of cognitive or academic ability
Students experience the curriculum based on their individual strengths and needs.
Determined by districts and is most effective when aligned with GLEs/GSEs
Should be age/grade appropriate
6 Talk about the importance of understanding content. Reinforce that this should be in collaboration with general education teacher. Age appropriate!Talk about the importance of understanding content. Reinforce that this should be in collaboration with general education teacher. Age appropriate!

8 Bring this back to the fact that it is important and these are the components in the rubricBring this back to the fact that it is important and these are the components in the rubric
9. Standards-Based Activities Are connected to the school and/or district curriculum.
Provide opportunities for skill development for individual students based on the AAGSEs.
Are age/grade appropriate.

10. RIAA Context Based Instruction RIAA context based instruction utilizes:
Structured Performance Tasks (SPTs)
Application activities
Distinct Activities 10 Talk about the SPT as the context in which the skills are taught. Instruction is provided to the students with application activities. Also talk here about age appropriate.Talk about the SPT as the context in which the skills are taught. Instruction is provided to the students with application activities. Also talk here about age appropriate.
11. Levels of Assistance Define how much help the student requires to participate in an activity.
Demonstrate movement towards independence.
Are listed as a hierarchy: least to most assistance.
Are individualized to meet the student’s needs. 11
12. Instructional Process 12
13. Assessment Shows what the student knows and is able to do.
Provides information that helps teachers make instructional decisions.
Plan instruction
Evaluate instruction
Refine instruction
RIAA datafolio measures achievement during the academic year. 13

16. Structured Performance Tasks (SPTs) Provide context in which standards-based activities occur.
Are grade span specific.
Example of a mathematics SPT for grades 3-5
Content Strand: Numbers and Operations
SPT #35-1: The student will use number concepts to solve everyday problems.. 16
17. Alternate Assessment Grade Span Expectations (AAGSEs) Targeted AAGSEs are paired with the Structured Performance Task (SPT).
Teachers select AAGSEs for individual students.
Students are assessed on 2 AAGSEs per SPT.

20. What Data Will Be Taken On? Accuracy Data
Correct vs. incorrect
Correct = Student cashier correctly counts the total charge amount displayed on the cash register.
Add coins correctly for 5 students = 5 opportunities
Independence Data
Did the child perform the skill alone?
If no, what levels of assistance were needed for the student to complete the counting of the $. 20

22. What Data Will Be Taken On? Accuracy Data
Correct vs. incorrect
Correct = Student answers questions about the text.
Student will answer 3 questions about the text.
Independence Data
Did the child perform the skill alone?
If no, what levels of assistance were needed for the student to complete answering the questions? 22

Student Progress
Level of Accuracy
Level of Independence 26
27. Scoring Rubric Dimension: Connection to the Content Strand 27
28. Scoring Rubric Dimension: Student Progress for Mathematics, Reading and Writing Increase in the Level of Accuracy,
Increase in the Level of Independence or
Decrease in the Levels of Assistance the student require to perform the skill
Progress is shown between data collection periods 1&2 and 2&3. 28
29. Scoring Rubric Dimension: Level of Accuracy for Mathematics, Reading and Writing
3rd collection period
Straight rubric score
Match the 3rd quarter average to the rubric 29
30. Scoring Rubric Dimension: Level of Independence for Mathematics, Reading and Writing
3rd collection period
Straight rubric score
Match the 3rd quarter average to the rubric 30
31. Resources Talk with a general education teacher for help in describing the skill the AAGSE is referring to.
