I currently have a student with an IEP whose testing accommodations include the deletion of spelling requirements. Since spelling is part of the assessment, how will that apply to the NYSESLAT?
Teachers may score the Writing section without considering spelling only when the student’s IEP or 504 Plan explicitly indicates “deletion of spelling requirements” as a testing accommodation. The rubrics are holistic, with spelling as only one component, so this accommodation when authorized by an IEP results in a valid score.
