[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 195446, member: 3444"] Good news! I sent an email to the assistant principal today outlining my concerns with difficult child 2's organization skills, his ability to remember important things like writing down assignments, bringing home books, taking medications... She is jumping right on it and said he could absolutely have a set of books for home. She likes the planner contract idea I proposed where his teachers must sign off on his planner each day to ensure all his assignments are there. And I also suggested that an adult signs a spot on his planner that verifies he took his medications each day. She was all for that, but just not sure about the logistics for him carrying it around with him since he takes his medications at the lunch recess and there is concern it would get lost if left out at the lunch tables or on the playground (it's elementary school). She also liked the watch idea, but was concerned about it going off in class. So she's going to talk to his two teachers and she'll get back to me on what she's able to work out. I also emailed a bit with difficult child 2's math teacher today about the difficulty he's having with certain kinds of word problems. She offered to help him before school, so I'm going to send him in 20 minutes early twice a week to have one-on-one tutoring. Wow, two bright spots in ONE day! Makes up for some of the other stuff that happened today.... (that's a whole 'nother thread...) [/QUOTE]
