My apologies in advance if this has already been addressed, but I couldn't figure out a key phrase to use for a search of the archives. So if there is already a related thread hereabouts, feel free to share.
I just received confirmation that our son will be meeting with the district psych for an acronym-laden day of fun and excitement right after school resumes. Both tests, although I'm still in the dark as to which ones will be used. Yay.
I've asked that I be notified a day or two in advance so that I could drill him with all of our old Uncle John's Bathroom Readers in preparation. And to make sure that he's not running any marathons or going on a hunger-strike the night before.
But I also want to know in advance so that I can let him know that he'll be meeting with someone who . . .
And that's where I draw the blank.
He doesn't appreciate surprises (of this nature, anyhow), so I definitely don't want him blindsided by the whole affair. Nor do I want him to worry/stew about it while waiting for "the" day (as I will undoubtedly be tied in knots already).
What approaches have been used by others?
