Homeschooling makes it easier for me to make classroom accommodations for my Hailey. But I thought some of you would like to see some of the things we are doing, that could also be used in a regular classroom. Hailey is in Second/Third grade.
We recently started measuring to the 1/2 inch. I quickly noticed that Hailey was having a hard time seeing the lines on the ruler. After trying out several different rulers, and her still being unable to see the lines, I made and adaption to a wooden ruler. This adaption was such a wonderful solution, and gave her confidence in her ability to succeed. She is now measuring to the 1/2 inch with no problems. Oh, and she can also now measure to the 1/4 inch.

Super idea! I just may do that myself - these old eyes are having a harder and harder time seeing those tiny lines :)
