[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 490735, member: 11791"] has she ever had a full Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation? motor and sensory? I'm seeing serious motor skills issues - even so simple as tieing shoes... Occupational Therapist (OT) should be able to detail the required accommodations and interventions for PE. That's the MINIMUM. e.g. For this student, running a mile in anything under 20 minutes is "best possible outcome"... so maybe 90% for a 20 minute mile, and 100% for 18 or faster just to have a goal. Specific points for just showing up dressed... and giving her 2x the time to change (should be 5x but they won't do it... but it can take 20x the mental effort to get changed than what a easy child takes...) Stuff directly related to where she is and what she can actually reach for... WITHOUT becoming a bigger bullying target. (my difficult child has a different problem with PE, and NO help from NOBODY in getting any exemption, accommodation or intervention of any kind. And this is Canada - so no legal basis to raise a stink either.) [/QUOTE]
