Oh. Good. Grief! Is this science teacher for real??? It sounds to me like a masters in teaching is not enough prep for this guy to be in a public school classroom. He seems to need some SERIOUS education about dealing with special Ed kids. I would go ahead and make that appointment. From what you've posted today this is only going to get worse if not addressed. Take a deep breath, dust off that flak jacket and get ready to rumble. There are some people who need to get hit upside the head with a clue bat. I'm sorry but your geologist turned middle school science teacher seems to be one of those.
