Cookie, my son is getting extra time for inclass writing. The issue at hand is logistical details how/when to give him that extra time. Since DS is in H.S. with grades switching he can't necessarily just stay longer. In my option that should be worked out now for this years teacher, not for every upcoming assignment. There is a level of social embarrassment about all this that makes my child not want to use his accommodations.
I bring up the idea an accommodation to turn some turn assignments in late. He will get really anxious on random assignments, that anxiety will cause procrastination and then he will write/do nothing. I'm trying to break him of this by being on top of his homework particularly larger projects but it doesn't always work.
jaggirl47 It's always ONE teacher. This year the bane of my existence is DS's Chemestry teacher. A class he should be able to get an A. But this teacher is so disorganized she is enabling his disorganization.
