Percentages of Students Receiving Each Type of Accommodation--Grade 4

The following table displays the number and the percentages of SD and LEP students assessed with the variety of available accommodations. It should be noted that students assessed with accommodations typically received some combination of accommodations. For example, students assessed in small groups (as compared to standard NAEP sessions of about 30 students) usually received extended time. In one-on-one administrations, students often received assistance in recording answers and were afforded extra time. Extended time was considered the primary accommodation only when it was the sole accommodation provided.

SD and LEP students assessed with accommodations, in the NAEP reading assessment: Grade 4 national samples where accommodations were permitted for identified students, public and nonpublic schools combined by type of accommodation: 1998 and 2000

Table A.7, 2000 NAEP Reading Report Card
SD = Students with Disabilities (the term previously used was IEP)
LEP = Limited English Proficient students
NOTE: The combined SD/LEP portion of the table is not a sum of the separate SD and LEP portions because some students were identified as both SD and LEP. Such students would be counted separately in the bottom portions but counted only once in each line of the top portion. Within each portion of the table, percentages may not sum properly due to rounding.
