What's this 4-Step System you ask??
The Accommodations Mini-Course
gives you a framework for getting your child the exact accommodations they need!
Step 1: What are accommodations, and how do they fit into the bigger picture of an IEP?
By knowing how to define the skill or problem identified earlier in the IEP, you will finally have clarity about how accommodations fit into the big picture of an IEP.
We discuss:
- What are accommodations
- What are modifications
- How accommodations support the vision you have for your child
- How to get collaboration from your school IEP team to make accommodations work
Step 2: Accommodations & modifications deep dive
Know that we know what they are and how they support, let's take a deep dive into just how accommodations should work to provide the correct support to help your child grow!
We discuss:
- Defining a need
- "Around and Through" concept of support
- The purpose of accommodations
- The process of choosing accommodations
- Accommodations vs Modifications
- How accommodations are used...even after school ends!
Step 3: The framework to select accommodations
This is the part you've been waiting for! We are ready to know what to ask for to support your child and go through some examples and resources.
We discuss:
- How we use strengths to know what accommodations to select
- A visual model for the 3 different kinds of accommodations to choose from
- Choosing an accommodation with just the right intensity
- Introduction to the Accomods App!
Step 4: How to advocate for accommodations

We discuss:
- Parent role in accommodations
- School IEP team role in accommodations
- How to structure your advocacy

YOU CHILD DESERVES TO HAVE THE RIGHT ACCOMMODATIONS TO HAVE ACCESS TO THEIR EDUCATION. NOW.
MEET YOUR TEACHERS!
And my passion is helping parents get their child supported and learning in school through insider knowledge of the school process and culture!
When I was an occupational therapist working in schools...
I started to notice some parents somehow getting the most out of their school IEP team....
Their IEPs for their children were amazing!
And their children learned and grew.
These parents didn't know everything, but they knew enough about the system, their rights, and their priorities for their child!
I started The IEP Lab out of a growing need for all parents to get the insider secrets from the schools in order to have all parents be able to advocate effectively for their child.
Because, don't all children deserve an amazing advocate?
I cannot WAIT to see your child get the access they deserve from their education by having the right accommodations in place.

The IEP Lab
My goal is to empower IEP teammates with the tools and mindsets
they need to make education work for all children.
When I was a teacher and administrator...
I observed some incredible success stories where educators and parents were able to work together to develop effective educational opportunities for children with special needs.
But I also saw many instances where IEP teams didn’t recognize the value of accommodations. And I noticed that parents and general education teachers needed ideas for how to help…and that special education teachers could use a few new ideas.
Because when a child is supported in just the right way amazing things happen…and when they aren’t frustration rules the day.
I want to see every child supported around their needs, so they are able to get the most from their education without their need impacting their ability to do so!
And that’s why I’m here…to help you to find the tools and mindset you need to
make education work for your child!
So let’s do this…let’s make education work for all children starting with yours!
