[QUOTE="totoro, post: 375744, member: 3155"] LDM- We did not sign the IEP yet. They are rewriting it up and we are meeting next week with likely more people... and looking it over. This will give us a bit more time to see as well if things are going smoothly. This was our plan with the Advocate. I agree with you about the homework/notes etc. We made it a bit clearer on her accommodation list that I supplied and the actual IEP is not written up yet. So I will definitely double check the wording again before we sign. We got into specifics about this and that K does not remember a thing when she gets home and this has been a huge problem in the past. We have been told, "Just trust her", which has backfired. We asked that things be explained homework as well as things going on in the class to K. Have K explain them back. We then asked for a note in her homework folder of her homework that must be done and how it must be done. (So that we can understand how to do it). We basically just asked for a very brief checklist (which we supplied) of plus and minus and what subject and activity she went to. Behaviour and work gets a plus or a minus. THis should only take a minute or 2. If something bad happens then she can expand on the back or write a note to me. I fully agree that it is soo hard to be a teacher! But the only reason why I become unglued at times is that K does the honeymoon thing so well.... so they all get that false sense of "She is fine". Part of me doesn't blame them, but if they listened to last years teacher and the specialists... well. Know what I mean?? One question I do have is, how do you really know if they are following some of the accommodations? Now that she is older and 3rd grade they are trying to push us parents out of the picture a bit more it seems like. How do I do this without making every one hate me? I think the Principal will be on our side and I know the Nurse is. The others most of them still really like us. [/QUOTE]
