Ok, I think what I will do is scribe all the Singapore Math, and that way he will keep progressing in math. He really likes math, it's just the writing that is a problem.
I am going to keep working on Handwriting Without Tears (or something else?...anyone have suggestions?) to try to get handwriting up to speed. If we stop the first grade math homework we would have more time for this. I just want to do maybe 10 minutes per day. If he continues to show no progress with writing, I will most likely give up, but keep trying to build motor coordination with other activities.
I think I will wait til his IEP meeting (or after) to talk about the first grade math. Right now the fact that the teacher is advocating for DS is probably the only reason that they are writing up an IEP. If she is mad at me--I don't know what will happen. I think we'll have to live with this til the meeting on the 19th.
