[QUOTE="mog, post: 295822, member: 1803"] This discussion helped me too -Thanks to all for the information! I do not know what FAPE or paras are but in our area the child has to have a social worker , case manager, and have what they call "in program" which are a group of teachers that work with our difficult child's and even though they do have to change classes it helps them to adjust to the new environment which later comes in handy. I was very fortunate that difficult child's 2nd grade teacher was so wonderful. My difficult child had problems with the first grade teacher because he would do the work and then wander around because he was bored and when I walked into the classroom one day (I would show up unannounced all the time-with 4 kids there I had to make my presence known) and he had his desk faceing the wall and was not allowed to speak to anyone --I MARCHED into the principals office and demanded a meeting NOW--the teacher said that difficult child was gifted and finished early and this was her attempt to keep him from bothering the other students and the principal; asked what else was she doing to keep him busy she said that she did not have time to work two cirriculums because she was working two jobs to send her child to private school so that he would "get a descent education" the principal made her go to the classroom and turn his chair around and to "fix" the problem the principal told her that when difficult child was done with his work to send him to pre k and kinder to read to them and then send a student to get him when teh rest of the class was ready to move on. 2nd grade teacher taught a 2-3 class which was great she kept him stimulated and called him on his behaviors--she tried several different ones with him. Following year seh decided to teach 3-4 so difficult child went with her --She is the one that told us he was gifted and should be tested. Unfortunately teh "system" has got him down and behaviors became a problem but She was amazing. Sorry -rambling- before the IEP meeting make sure that you let the case manager know that you would like all of his teachers present so that everyone is on the same page. Good Luck [/QUOTE]
