Hi Traceyqns
I love the idea of you and your red wagon of workbooks! What a visual! I think that will help for next year's placement.

as for the rest of this year...

What about putting him back with his agemates so he can have some fun, and asking the teachers to bring the work to him? If he's really miserable, perhaps that will get him in a better place to end the year? Or if you suggest it, and he gets a chance to say 'No Please No' then perhaps he'll be happier where he is?

Is there an 'older class' in his current school?

I think, that even if a teacher is 'nice' that they just aren't doing thei job if a kid can be 'discluded' over a nose-pick.
