[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Are we just stuck here or is there an accommodation that would help?[/quote]
OP your accommodation at home, so to speak, is to continue to ask your DS over and over to check his numbers against what was written in the word/picture problem.  Once you stop asking, he knows he can proceed to the math, which he can do successfully.  Otherwise he would not catch the fact that he confused 6 and 9, and that during his second try, he put the hundred in front of the number for the wrong animal.

I would focus my questions for the case manager and teacher on how they will teach him to make this process independent so that he is not relying on someone else for this step.  Maybe he needs to read the numbers out loud, or express them graphically before he moves to numerals.  The teachers should help him break down the process somehow.  This goes beyond an accommodation.  It is specialized instruction.  This is the reason you have an IEP and not just a 504.  [/quote]
