[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 134247, member: 1233"] The distractions are much what I meant. Also, a quiet area with some things that help him self-calm (for us a DVD-calm one,no violence of any kind - even many Disney animated videos are too violent for when my difficult child was needing this), things he can fiddle with, blankets, whatever works. The refusing to write can be several things. He needs to be tested for dysgraphia, and tested by an Occupational Therapist (OT) for sensory integration disorder. The school should be able to test for this in your situation. IF a certified letter requesting this doesn't get results, then check in with the Special Education forum - they know all the tricks! My boys have each refused to write. It hurts their hands. Jess too, though to a much lesser degree. The Occupational Therapist (OT) works with thank you on a weekly basis to improve his hands and writing. MAny tricks, but out school Occupational Therapist (OT) just does a little bit. we do more at home. Would it help you to see the info on sensory integration in a video? I know the "out of sync child" is available in vhs format - very very helpful if no time to read. The library at the university or the public library should have it or be able to get it. If not, let me know. I have it on VHS. Can problem make a copy and send it to you. Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
