[QUOTE="Martie, post: 5492, member: 284"] MM, The "wire crossed" is a figure of speech. Northwestern used to say it about my easy child who had a serious expressive language delay in the presence of otherwise high ability. I do not think that MRIs are yet capable of revealing these subtle glitches. Personally, I believe your SD simply falsifies test results because the person who found out what they were using got different scores than they did a short time later. I do not know very much about how to get evaluations. done under medicaid. The good news is your difficult child CAN learn some sort of compensation for both of her problems because she is so bright. It is always better to NOT have a problem, but difficult children who are bright have wider options in learning compensatory strategies. The downside is that they sometimes never get services or get them too late to matter because they don't fail "enough." I'm glad your difficult child is doing so much better behaviorally in regular the classroom. I knew she could do it if she got the chance. It doesn't seem that this year's teacher is as good. Any chance last year's teacher has an opinion on the handwriting and math. Not to put her on the spot--but you might wat to ask her if she did things that helps that were not committed to paper because that was not the major focus last year. Let me know if I can do anything else--I don't know what that would be--but feel free to e-mail but don't go through the site--my e-mail is public--I hope your SD can't read regular e-mail. The sicko thing is if they are going through posts, it is at tax payer expense. Sheesh, Martie [/QUOTE]
