M is for Modifications vs. Accommodations: Know the Difference
Not all supports are created equal—and knowing the difference between accommodations and modifications can help you better understand your child’s IEP or 504 Plan. In this episode, we’ll break down what each one means, how they affect learning expectations, and why it matters long-term. You’ll also hear a real-life story that shows just how blurry the line can get—and a simple question to help you clarify what’s really happening in the classroom.
