[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 394038, member: 1550"] My son's diagnosis was actually Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified. You have to do what you want to do. We let him do his English and math in the Special Education classroom because it was 1-1 and he could work at his own pace AND he was not surrounded by tons of noisy kids. My son is now 17 and he's done great, and is mainstreamed now, BUT he still complains when his classmates are noisy. He simply can not work with rustling papers, whispering kids, giggling, etc. It's part of his sensitivity to noise. I alerted his counselor so that maybe he can do his work in a quiet work room. My son had an aide until high school. He really didn't need it after about sixth, but the aide stayed in the back of the class and helped a few of the kids and my son learned to ask her if he needed more of an explanation of work or any help. As for homework, school itself was hard to sit through for my son. He tried very hard and did it nicely every day. We asked that he be excluded from homework. What they did was to put him into a quiet study hall where he could do his homework IN SCHOOL so that once he came home he was done. He could unwind. It was very helpful. j Good luck at the meeting. in my opinion ask for anything you want to add to your IEP. [/QUOTE]
