Special ed. and gifted students are sometimes written off and not pushed to their full potential. It is up to you to make sure this does not happen.
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.
SPED Services – Tutor Advocate
Some school systems won’t give SPED services until someone that speaks their language is on your side such as a tutor, advocate, or lawyer.
Fight For Your Children
Schools are strapped for cash and tend to fight giving out needed services. Don’t blindly go along with whatever they say. Sometimes they try to short-change you while claiming they know what is best. Fight for your kids.
Math Fun
Sports statistics are great for having fun with math. Finding baseball batting averages and earned run averages put math skills to good use.
Stress Tip
Stress balls are great for calming a student and allowing them to re-focus.
Achievement
Achievement is only 1% aspiration and 99% perspiration.
Role Model
You are a role model. Kids can see and learn determination, responsibility, confidence, love, persistence, and positive attitude from you.
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.
Autism / Asperger’s and Structure
Autistic and Asperger’s students depend on structured activities. Create structure at home with positive set routines.
