I think that the word accomodation is scary to many instructors when it should not be. It's not that hard to accomodate a student when warranted. For example, if you have someone who has a learning disorder with reading. Part of your class you ask each student to read excerpts outloud from the book. Why not easily accomodate this student and let them know a week in advance what excerpt they will be called upon to read? This way, they can practice, not feel "stupid" when they read it out loud during class, and they can do the exercise just like the other classmates. To me, this is an easy thing and example of how to accomodate.
