Not only a visual but a gif that is directly connected to the Learning Target, so helpful for students who may need more support AND enables the teacher to circulate more instead of modeling over and over.

This is a terrific example an accommodation that could be submitted for "ADAPTOBER".

Answers to some❓ we've received about the upcoming "Adaptober" event:

-You don't have to be a MAPEC member to share

-You can submit more than one adaptation

-Submissions should be completed by Sept. 30th.

-It doesn't have to be a new idea, tired & true adaptations are great!
