We are struggling this year with my DD9. She is only enrolled for ELA to help with those discrepencies. It allows her to work to her potential in her other subjects. She still struggles with the writing and has an IEP to allow her to type, but the teacher isn't allowing it so far this year. She is really nice and is said to have a special needs child herself but I'm not sure how much she gets and if she realizes that my DD can read/comprehend at such a high level but struggle so much with writing. The school is pushing for more time "to work on socialization" but I hesitate. They already added an hour to her day four days a week this year for more ELA and want her to stay over on Fridays to work on social skills during lunch. I don't think it's wholely productive when there aren't any like peer for her to socialize with. She does very well with adults to and I ask myself the same question.
