[QUOTE="HMBgal, post: 709810, member: 13260"] Oh goodness. Yeah, I got me one of those boys (grandson) too. He finally got a 1:1 and she's made such a difference. The 504 wasn't enough support and punishment never works with these kids, not in my experience at least. These kids don't learn by punishing. Some do, but these kids don't--it makes it worse. When we finally got a teacher that cared enough to learn how to employ techniques that support these types of kids, it was so much better. It can be done, even in a general education class. We did finally go the full IEP route after testing three times and they said he didn't need an IEP, but by 4th grade, it was clear he did. He's Other Health Impaired and Emotional Disturbance. He's still struggling, but with what his new school has put in place (taking breaks, standing up to do some of his work in a quiet place, chunking the work assignments, lightening the homework load, resource for math, and a really sweet 1:1 aide), he's doing pretty good. I hope this new school works for your boy. It's hard. [/QUOTE]
