When you think about designated supports - would you consider it a smorgasbord or a diet? Why? by Nicole Asch

Diet

jenniferdingler — 2023-11-08 21:23:34 UTC

The students should only receive what they are using in class based on their IEP or 504.

It's a diet. You only want to use what's necessary and helpful, rather than anything and everything.

Carefully selected diet.

I think of designated supports as a diet --one needs to think about what is best for the individual and the individual only has access to those during the assessments.

A diet, because they should be applied selectively

I think it is a diet because it should be a support that has been proven with data that the student needs to be successful.

I believe designated supports are more of a diet, because it is planned individually for each student. A smorgasbord seems more of a free-for-all.

An individually tailored diet.

Diet- it's prescribed specifically to the student and is well thought out and purposeful as opposed being a random smorgasbord of whatever.

Diet

Because not everyone can have every support

Diet - it should be what an individual student needs in order to be successful.

Diet because it's what the student absolutely need and shows evidence that they use consistently in the classroom

2023-11-08 21:24:13 UTC

Diet - students should only receive designated supports they use in the classroom on a routine basis

I think of designated supports as a diet that is specifically created for that person. There is a plan that is created to cater to their needs.

I think of it as a diet that you do what works for you.

Diet, because it’s based on the kid’s needs that have a 504/IEP.

Diet

2023-11-08 21:24:25 UTC

I think of it more like a Diet to use when it's necessary and helpful rather than always with everything

I think it is a diet because there are there are "limits"

Diet

2023-11-08 21:24:29 UTC

Using independently, effectively, and consistently

Diet: students should only receive what they need.

Diet

2023-11-08 21:24:40 UTC

Students are only receiving what they need vs. given a bunch of options and choosing.

Diet because it's based on an individual's needs.

Diet, they don't need every accommodation

A diet that is available for those specifically in need

2023-11-08 21:24:55 UTC

I consider it a smorgasbord. Supports should support a variety of learning/testing styles.
