Activity (20 points)
Looking at the Testing Accommodations Manual (2017) that I shared, discuss which of the test accommodations might be needed for a student with a disability in the area of Specific Learning Disability: Reading Comprehension. List the accommodation and then rationalize why you selected that accommodation.
