HMMMM.....well, that's interesting to get two very different opinions! And they pretty much reflect the two sides that I have thought about and why I'm not sure what to do!
GG: I really appreciate the wording you offered. My first attempt sounded too strong, so I reworked the material and "softened" the approach. Your suggested wording is great so I'll take advantage and plagarize! Thanks!
Willa: Points well taken. I agree about not giving them too much time to counter the suggestions I have. But since we've already had a successful advocacy relationship and they've already been exposed to where I'm coming from, I think I'm going to take a chance and give them my list beforehand. I'm more worried that we will go away from the meeting without having made any decision at all. And DS is counting on us (parents) to make changes to his math at this meeting. I do agree that heading into an IEP can be different.
Thanks to both of you.
