[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 424249, member: 1722"] Thanks ladies. :) Exhausted- The other thing I want to do at the elementary level is have her be placed at the front or rear of the line in the hall... that's mute in middle school. She's pretty self-conscious so I doubt she'll want the attention of leaving b4 the others.... she'd probably just prefer to "manage" through that. The good news is that the kids' core classes are in wings by grade at our middle school. She won't have far to go except for specials. Phys Ed & lunch are centralized. She already uses a similar binder this year though it is set up for the whole day rather than by subject. I think perhaps a second set of books at home will be helpful. As is, I pick her up on Wednesdays when she has to manage her regular school book bag with binder, lunch bag and any homework, her music bag, viola and gym bag. Sheesh... it would be too much for most adults! JJJ- She's allowed to use a squishy ball in class. It used to be in her desk, but another student kept swiping it (another trigger for Duckie) so the teacher keeps it at her desk. Duckie is the only student allowed to remove anything from the desk without explicitly asking permission. She also allows Duckie to keep hand sanitizer on her desk (I think she likes how it "feels" in addition to the cleanliness) and a bottle of water.
