[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 129197, member: 2211"] difficult child reminded several of her teachers about IEP accomodations and some took it well, others not so much. In particular, Her SS teacher was angry with her when she said she wanted to do one half of a test in class and the other in resource room (in her IEP that she can have untimed testing and broken up, as long as it is completed in resourse class). He told her no and she failed the test. Chances are good that she would have failed the test anyway, but that was besides the point. difficult child 'reminded' him that she was allowed to break up her exams and he must have felt stupid in front of his other students and chose to send difficult child to the principals office, just to cool her heels sitting there the remainder of the class. difficult child called me at work. Before the day was over, it was cleared up but still too late for her to take the test and he refused to allow her a makeup. That teacher gave us problems all year - in fact, he told me that difficult child was lazy, which she was, but that wasn't the ONLY reason her work wasn't getting done on time and he just didn't seem to get that. Urgh. Her English teacher was once reminded by difficult child that she needed the notes from class. The teacher said no. I called and reminded her of difficult child's IEP and she was very pleasant. difficult child's IEP stated that difficult child could request a copy of the teacher's notes at any time if she wasn't following along with class notes or discussion. This teacher was one of our faves. As long as your child is polite, I think it's okay for him to remind the teacher. Also, I would advise you to perhaps try a little role playing should the situation arise again. And I'd also advise your difficult child to seek out his Special Education teacher to explain himself to avoid further confusion. [/QUOTE]
