Hi ColinsMum, just a quick reply for the moment--he can explain his problem-solving, it's just writing it down. Until we have accomodations in place that would allow an oral response, or something along those lines, asking him to write a story about a bird, cat, dog and fish that he's drawn is pretty much pointless, ykwim? Pages from the Venn Perplexors books would be a more humane alternative, I think.
I'm guessing that he could complete thru 4th grade ALEKS easily this summer, but it's not something I would push. Just thinking about offering the opportunity.
