When fighting for special education accommodations and services, examine the situation before you act impulsively. Have all your facts ready to go to counter their refusal to help. Also plan ahead by preparing evidence and rebuttals to reasons you believe they will claim their services are not needed for your child.
Asperger’s Kids and Group Settings
Often times Asperger’s kids may need an adult to initially get them involved with other kids in group projects, sports teams or games.
Accommodations
It is not up to you to accommodate the school system. It is up to the school system to accommodate your child and you.
Stress Tip
Stress balls are great for calming a student and allowing them to re-focus.
Chewing
Students with the need to chew things constantly should make chewing gum a part of their IEP or program even if it is usually disallowed. This will reduce chewed pencils, shirt collars, etc.
Physically Challenged
The physically challenged need the same chances as others. Accommodations must be given and payoff big dividends. This is for N in Brookline, MA.
