Two weeks into school, and my son (7th) has had five zeros - all for work he'd completed the day before but couldn't find to turn it in once he was back in class. With the assistance of his teachers helping him look, they were able to point out the assignments exactly where they were supposed to be in his folder for that class. He's been given credit for them, but this was the continuing nightmare we had last year, and I'm dreading to see it start already.
In passing, I asked my husband (who has a lot of the same 2e issues as well as being PG) if he was like that. He said yes. I asked him how he couldn't find a paper that he'd just done the day before. He explained that it is because he tends to look for the "image" of the way the paper looked when it was finished rather than reading the words on the paper to see whether it is what he is looking for.
ARGGGGHHHHH
If any of you have dealt with this, what processes/steps/accommodations/etc. worked? I just can hardly face another year of constantly interceding so that he gets credit for work that he failed to turn in even when it was right in his folder where it belonged.
