When it was mentioned she use positive instead of negative her exact words were "why should I reward him for things he should already be doing?" Well let's see he should be able to write but has dysgraphia! I was told recently by one of the specialist was showing her some of the accommodations and stated she could implement it throughout her entire class (she was talking about graph paper) and the teacher came back andasked "why would iI want to do that?" And the specialist said Because that's good teaching!
Just last week the kids had a field trip. They were supposed to put their lunches in a large bun. D's prefers to actually keep his lunch on him. Well the teacher forgot the lunches so she went and bought McDonalds for the kids whose lunches were in the bin but not her students who kept their lunch bags on them because "those students followed directions so D's had to watch his other classmates have happy meals.
