[quote=Anonymous]Our DC was recently diagnosed with ADHD and has a lot of difficulty starting and completing writing assignments (3rd grade) and I'm trying to find ways to help at home. It is starting to affect his grades - gets a D, for example, due to incomplete work. Should I be asking for a chance for my DC to complete it at home (as part of a 504)? And/or, should I come up with assignments to do at home so that I can coach him? I hate to add to his homework (although he currently has zero language arts homework), but when I did some make-up work with him at home recently, it was clear that the individual attention and coaching helped him a lot. (There is no way a teacher can provide that with so many students in the class.)[/quote]
