[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 518104, member: 11791"] Just because she "can" [B]some of the time[/B], does NOT mean she "can" [I]all of the time.[/I] It's an on-going thing... we've been there done that with other issues. If a kid "can" write a sentence, then they "can" write a paragraph - right? (WRONG). If a kid "can" do it on Monday after 2 weeks off, then he "can" do it on the last Friday before spring break - right? (WRONG). There will be layers to this. There will be one or more "sequence of events", or a fatigue cycle, or something. Have you seen the "parent report"? It's somewhere on the Site Help and Resources forum... or you can look for any posting by susiestar, she has the link in her signature... It would help you capture all the past and on-going details. You could also start a journal - daily. Look back for possible triggers etc. Have you seen the book The Explosive Child? Lots of us find it helpful. The author has a different philosophy about kids and this whole can/can't thing. Most people seem to believe that kids do well "if they want to"; the author of this book believes that kids do well "if they can". [/QUOTE]
