[QUOTE="SRL, post: 89660, member: 701"] sigh...this is why we stress over and over again to those with younger children to get the most thorough evaluation right up front that you can. It's natural that it goes against our better judgement (time, money, hassle, privacy) to dive right in and get the works right away but I am certain it would be a huge savings in the long run given all that goes wrong with missed and partial diagnoses. One of the biggest helps to us on the homefront has been a mini gym in the basement. The most used piece is a swing attached to a rotating swivel we got from an Occupational Therapist (OT) supply place. That thing has paid for itself over and over again in terms of transfering therapy to the home and helping regulate difficult child. The other kids like it too. :-) Isn't there any quiet place in that whole big classroom setting? I would think they would have cubicles set up for kids who wanted or needed quiet places to work. I was in a multiage class way back in the dinosaurs. It was multiage by default, not by design, and it was difficult even for me as a good student without extraordinary distraction problems. [/QUOTE]
