[QUOTE="Shari, post: 266305, member: 1848"] Marg, I don't have a lot Occupational Therapist (OT) time to answer and haven't read your whole reply yet, but I want to point out that difficult child has fine motor problems and he struggles terribly with writing anything. To make one capital letter uually takes him several seconds and multiple pencil strokes. He can't write. One of his IEP goals is to learn to write half the alphabet. I guess that's why I'm a little frustrated with this - this was the better para, pushing him at something that he was requested to do in the mainstream room, but already has been identified that he can't. I'm all for pushing him, but is that the place to do it? (he adores his brother and is always wanting to send him stuff - just about any assignment that is a letter or a picture is done for his brother.) I'll answer more soon. This is all the time I have, but wanted to be sure to throw that out there. PS - I did thank her for this. It is very helpful to have the big picture. Unfortunately, they assume I am looking to blame the "mediocre" para by asking for the "who's", and I am certain things will be very tense for a while. [/QUOTE]
