DD14 is HG(+) with dyslexia and dysgraphia. We are having her first high school 504. I asked her if there was anything that she wanted to address. She said that everything is going fine except Spanish. This is DD's first time studying a foreign language and it seems to be highlighting her weaknesses, i.e. lack of automaticity, difficulty distinguishing unfamiliar phonemes and struggles with spelling and conventions. DD said that the teacher made a "snotty comment" (DD's words) to the class that they should be able to figure out how to spell the words in Spanish based solely on hearing the teacher say the word. This statement triggered all kinds of anxiety for DD. Any suggestions re how to bring this up politely in DD's 504 and possible accommodations?
