[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you not know after having visited? Diener takes all kinds of LDs and SNs and Auburn is really more specialized towards ASD/ADHD although there's a pretty diverse group there too.[/quote] NP. Eh. I can understand how it’s hard to tell the difference. I toured both but couldn’t figure out the right place for my kid. Above grade level, ASD with aggressive behavior, ADHD, and anxiety. I never know what LD means. Dyslexic, dysgraphia, I understand but I don’t know what any other LDs are. I also don’t know what language based learning disorders means. How does it play out in the classroom. What additional supports are needed for a child with non dyslexic or dysgraphic dx?[/quote] I think you need to read up a bit. Kids with slow processing speed may need visual and oral and tactile directions. Kids with low average IQ need repetition. Kids with fine motor issues need help writing and using hand skills, kids with vision processing issues need accommodations, kids that get overwhelmed with sensory things need quiet and calm and etc etc etc. This is literally why special education exists. To accommodate individual learning issues. Educate yourself a bit. And yes, you’re correct, nobody really does aggression. [/quote]
