well-written IEP, focusing on creating individualized and actionable plans.

• Alignment with Missouri State GLA: We guide educators in writing IEP goals that are
aligned with the Missouri Grade-Level Assessments (GLA), ensuring that IEP goals are in
sync with state standards and expectations.
B. Accommodations and Modifications
Understanding Accommodations vs. Modifications: Our sessions clarify the differences between accommodations (changes in how content is delivered) and modifications (changes in what content is taught) to better support student success.
Implementing Accommodations and Modifications: We provide educators with practical strategies for incorporating accommodations and modifications into classroom instruction, ensuring students with special needs have equitable access to the curriculum.
C. Writing SMART Goals Aligned with Missouri GLA
Developing Standards-Based Goals: Educators will learn how to create meaningful, data-driven SMART goals that are aligned with the Missouri GLA standards, ensuring that students are working toward grade-level expectations.
