[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Explicitly (very Explicitly) teach her time management & executive function techniques/ tips and tricks. [b]Figure out what her process is and teach her to find a point when (to her) its 90% done and work towards that being the "final product". [/b] She doesn't have to do this forever, but she needs to learn this as a life skill. [/quote] OP here. This is her in a nutshell. She will work on something for an unbelievable amount of time and then stall out at 95% completed and not turn it in because she hasn't tweaked it quite enough. We used to think, "oh wow, she is so diligent and precise" but it's turned out to be a major handicap. She had teachers last year and this year (two different schools) tell her that an essay she finally turned in was the best they've seen in their career of teaching kids in that respective grade but she's not functional in the day-to-day. :( [/quote]
