Sorry to interupt the flow of conversation, but I wanted to update you regarding Mite and the keyboard.
You may recall last week I was under the impression they were going to provide Mite a keyboard for classroom usage.
Well, I just received an email from the AT person who assessed Mite last week and she says that while he has improved in keyboarding skills, she still does not feel his speed is sufficient for classroom work.
ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH!!! This is the same person who at the IEP meetins always chants the "least restrictive environment" mantra. I truly feel her "assessment" held a strong "anti-accomodation" bias.
Gosh it feels like we inch forward then plummet backward. How can she see what he wrote last week on the keyboard? Why does she want to limit him to drabble and scribble when he's capable of diamonds and gold?
What to do now?
ok Wadafite....breathe breathe GASP!!!:^)
