[quote=Anonymous]This was also the case at our MS. At first it sounded like a good idea that our sped teacher actually had a learning disability himself; we thought he could be a positive role model and would understand how kids with dyslexia and dysgraphia could learn to write. But, ultimately he wasn't able to teach, and insisted the kids work hard instead of teaching them how to work smart according to their individual strengths/weaknesses. This year we pulled DC out of resource and insisted he be mainstreamed in the Eng class commensurate with his ability and delivered services there. Overall, it's much better because that English teacher knows how to teach English and writing. I've also goven up on MCPS and provide outside writing tutoring.[/quote]
