[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 195396, member: 805"] My difficult child is diagnosis'd with written expression disorder (which is related to executive functioning I believe). It is almost impossible for him to take notes from the teacher or the board. I can remember, pretesting, him spending many, many recesses inside finishing his board work. When I think back on those days, it was cruel. Your son needs to be tested, as other posters have suggested, so that a clear diagnosis can be made. At that point, supports, i.e., spellchecker, keyboard technology, etc., can be written into an IEP. In the meantime, I would meet with the teacher again and let her know that your child is going to be tested and there is no way she should be withheld from important lessons due to a perceived disability. Speak to an administrator if you hit a brick wall with this teacher. I can't stand educators like her...... Side note to Christy - I looked into Word Q. It sounds very interesting. I will be doing some more research on this for my difficult child! Sharon [/QUOTE]
