[QUOTE="buddy, post: 574036, member: 12886"] K is pretty structured and often compared to preschool kids with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) tendencies can do well with a good teacher who keeps things on schedule and visual. In fact that works against many kids with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) because they can look so much better and it seems they are gettting over their issues etc...THEN when social demands increase and language becomes academically more abstract (starting in third grade) you see issues again. If they had never been identified previously, they often are considered behavioral kids exclusively, not realizing all of the sensory and language processing etc...issues that might be going on. So, it might be that he would do ok in a K class. You might talk to the principal and he/she will likely know which of the K teachers are better equipped for a child with social and sensory needs.
