06-07 Practice Test All accommodations/adjustments used during the administration of the Florida Standards Alternate Assessment Performance Task (FSAA- PT) must align with what the student uses during daily instruction. One allowable adjustment on the FSAA-PT is the substitution of pictures for real objects. This has been prepared indicating where real objects may be substituted. All objects listed are typically found in the classroom or school setting. Use your professional judgment about which objects will be safe and appropriate for use by your students (e.g., scissors). Objects can be of any type and size unless otherwise indicated (e.g., any type of book such as a textbook, reading book, etc.). If specific objects are listed, an explanation is provided in the "Replacement Objects" column (e.g., a real flower of any kind, and an artificial flower of any kind). Object substitutions are listed only if all stimulus pictures and/or response options within a task can be replaced with real or representational objects. For students who may benefit from the use of tactile materials, a table with instructions for how to prepare tactile materials has been provided on the last page of this document. The Tactile table will indicate which items allow for this type of replacement and lists acceptable methods/strategies for creating the tactile materials. Please refer to the number provided in the column of the for the corresponding section in the Tactile Table. There are some items that will require real object exchange when administering to students with visual impairments. The items that require real object exchange will be indicated with an X in the column.

Tactile Graphics Guidelines Graphic Presentation Instructions for How to Prepare Tactile Graphics Letters or Lines Teachers can provide tactile letters or lines by using: Tracing wheel on tracing paper or aluminum foil Wiki sticks Quick draw paper Adhesive braille labels for single letters Teachers can also: Draw on paper that is placed on top of a textured surface like sandpaper or screen. Emboss on aluminum foil using pencil. Shapes Teachers can provide: Pattern blocks, tangrams, or geometry manipulatives. Cut out shapes using heavy card stock. Outlined shapes using wiki sticks, tracing wheel, quick draw paper, pencil on aluminum foil, or shapes drawn on paper placed on top of a textured surface. Shading Some tasks present shapes that are fully or partially shaded. Cut out desired shapes and use textured materials such as sandpaper to indicate the shaded area. Draw using quick draw paper, tracing wheel, or pencil aluminum foil, and use a pattern to indicate shaded area (stripes, dots, etc.). Draw on paper placed on a textured surface and shade only the portion that is shaded in the task. 4 Shapes with Dimensions and/or Labels Some tasks present shapes that are labeled with dimensions. Provide cut outs using sturdy paper such as card stock for shape. Outline shapes using wiki sticks, quick draw paper, tracing wheel, or pencil on aluminum foil. Braille adhesive labels for dimensions or use tactile hash marks at equal intervals on each edge so the student can count units for the dimensions (as appropriate). 06-07 Practice Test
Graphic Presentation Instructions for How to Prepare Tactile Graphics 5 Divided Shapes Some tasks present shapes that are divided into sections. Cut out desired shapes. Use wiki sticks, quick draw paper, tracing wheel, or pencil on aluminum foil to indicate outline of shape and dividing lines. Use a different pattern or texture for the dividing line. If shading is indicated, use textured materials such as drawing on paper placed over sandpaper or screen to indicate the shaded area. Draw using quick draw paper. 6 One Hundred Grids Some tasks present One Hundred Grids. Use raised-line graph paper and cut into hundreds chart, shade using drawing wheel or place paper of textured surface. Draw using quick draw paper, tracing wheel, or pencil aluminum foil. 7 Number Lines Some tasks present numbers lines. Use Wiki sticks or yarn (pinned) on a cork board using thumb tacks to indicate points on the line. Draw using quick draw paper, tracing wheel, or pencil aluminum foil. Use adhesive braille labels as needed. 8 Graphs Some tasks present linear graphs. Use raised-line graphing paper if appropriate with thumb tacks as points. Rubber bands or wiki sticks can be stretched between points to make lines. Use thumb tacks on a cork board if a grid isn t necessary, stretching rubber bands or wiki sticks between points. Outline graph using quick draw paper, tracing wheel, pencil aluminum foil, or wiki sticks. Use adhesive braille labels as needed. 06-07 Practice Test
Graphic Presentation Instructions for How to Prepare Tactile Graphics 9 Coordinate Grids Some tasks present coordinate grids. Use raised-line graphing paper to make coordinate grid Use a thumb tack to indicate a specific coordinate, or multiple thumb tacks and stretch a rubber band between them to indicate a line. Draw using quick draw paper, tracing wheel, or pencil aluminum foil. Use braille adhesive labels as appropriate. If an object/shape represents a specific coordinate point, replace with representative objects or use various types of thumb tacks. 06-07 Practice Test
