[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 43408, member: 1967"] RM ~ I'm not opposed to your suggestions but I am curious about what you think the teacher should say to the other students when they don't have a pencil and they watch you hand a difficult child a pencil each day. Believe me, they will be quick to point out that you gave so-and-so a pencil and not them. The teacher can't say, "Oh, he has an IEP so he gets treated differently" because of privacy issues and the fact that you don't want to embarrass the student. I truly would like suggestions on how to handle something like this. As we have more and more inclusion classes, exceptions made for special education students become touchy issues. In some cases, like an obvious asperger's student, the other kids don't question special treatment. However, most Special Education students blend in with the rest of the class (and as teachers we try to make sure that is the case) but then the other students don't understand the special treatment. It's a dilemma. Janet ~ Speaking of embarrassing a child ~ I actually had a mom come to school and walk her high school son from class to class because he just couldn't seem to get to class on time. She only had to do it once. [img]:grin:[/img] ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
