In Mrs. Kendall's classroom, I see modifications for learners who are exceptional in several ways. There are several students in Mrs. Kendall's class who need special attention; one is autistic who comes and goes, another student who has a minor case of autism, and some students who just struggle in certain subjects. The first day I went to Mrs. Kendall's class she had IEP appointments. So she is fulfilling that requirement. I have also noticed that she teaches with all of the learning modalities, auditory, visual, and kinesthetic.
Also, Mrs. Kendall gives all of her students the same amount of classwork, but offers everyone individual help. She is very attentive of each of her students, and checks each assignment as it is turned in and if it is not satisfactory she sends the student back to try again, if the student needs additional help she will supply them with an aid (me or another student or herself). With the slightly autistic student, she is very clear with his instructions. He has a written copy and she makes sure that he knows exactly what is expected of him and how to do everything. I've noticed he is really independent and likes to do things himself, he just goes on his merry little way. :)
