It went...ok. Everything was calm, but I didn't ask for much. The district is really only centered on the handwriting and don't seem to understand that without OT there will be no improvement in the writing, the organization or the attention. They think they only need pens and special paper, it seems. SIGH
so, I'm a bit down about it. The giftedness was not addressed AT ALL, but I brought it up whenever possible. He is, so far, placed in the 3rd grade gifted cluster with 2 kids who are "like him" intellectually and several others who are "close" whatever that means. I do like that teacher and feel she will address some of the issues, but still not to the level he needs. They will supposedly discuss more options for him next week. I didn't find the district gifted specialist to be helpful at all.
I'm bushed! Off to bed!! :^)
