[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 108316, member: 805"] Janna, I think MWM is correct. Dylan needs specific autism supports in his IEP. Additionally, the teacher may have to make some modification in her requirements of Dylan. If she has just taught a lesson in history and gives the kids two work sheets to complete, Dylan should be required to complete just one. Some teachers are so "set in stone" that they take personally accoms and mods for kids with special needs. In regards to the 1:1, it is difficult road to haul. But what you will need to do is go at it to show that having a 1:1 with him guarantees his legal right to LRE (least restrictive enviornment). Staying in the classroom is the LRE, period. Also, modeling peer behavior and learning social cues from his peers is extremely important to his future success. If he has a 1:1 in the classroom, he gets LRE and positive peer relations. Another thing that could help are his grades. I know that when I went to the "hearing" to justify difficult child's 1:1, the group seemed impressed that this was a child with behavior issues that were disruptive to the learning enviornment of the classroom, but was able to maintain honor role or scholar role in addition to getting advanced proficient on all his standards of learning state tests. They viewed the 1:1 as a support that could help difficult child stay on task and anticipate issues with frustration and anger that would free the teacher from having to take valuable classroom time to handle those issues. I hope you can get some academic supports in place for Dylan. It's work, but I can tell you from personal experience, it can make all the difference in the world. Sharon [/QUOTE]
