EL Update

A Spanish version is available
All other supports require a 504 or IEP
The Spanish version is assigned within the WIN testing platform
FYI - WIN uses a 4 function calculator - many 4 function calculators do not automatically apply order of operations which means that students who are used to scientific calculators may need help in understanding how to use the 4 function calculator
