[QUOTE="Ropefree, post: 235061, member: 6271"] My son is an excellant learner with the classic adhd traits of not wanting to do things that he already knows. When he was IQ tested this showed up clear as a bell. If you have the evidenced based tests in his *** then you can go into the IEP team and make it clear that you want each teacher to do their part to have the assigned work completed. completions are what result in the top grades. This work habit will not hurt him and he will get it. As the adhd learner HATES doing something twice the fact is when he sits down to work he will get it done lightening fast. I also asked that teachers take time in the beginning of their semester with him to do the corrections on work he does in a 'draft' so that he is given the comments and then armed with the specific instruction ie" messy, can not read this" or " needs more discriptive words" he can provide them with the quality they are SUPPOSE to teach our children. I would have the teacher who is not having his work turned in explain what he/she can do to turn this around on a daily basis. Can the student be refered to his Special Education teachers room or use the library at school and complete work daily? How much time per day is the teacher(s) anticipating a student spend on the assigned work? What I did/do is make the evidenced tested potential from the IQ the standard the teachers use as "benchmark" and if the completions are not at that minimum (which for my learner is 90%)it is each teachers obligation to e-mail the Special Education teacher and me so that the appropriate habits are supported. Do not tolerate manipulating you over this. It is the students work. If he is not willing to behave appropriately then NO priveledges. No going outside. No tv. No playing with friends. No computer use. No computer games. You have to feed and cloth him but he doesn't have to like that either. use of the computer was not an issue for my learner until he took a leftturn and stopped following the rules. [/QUOTE]
