[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. We asked the psychologist what we could expect in school in upcoming years due to the issues with processing speed. She listed what he would likely struggle with, and then said he will need more time to take tests, and that we may want to request that the teacher give out copies of lecture notes and cut down on homework volume if needed. But she didn't really talk about when - 3rd grade? Middle school? High school? So without using the word "accommodation", she did suggest some to us over the phone just without a suggested time frame.[/quote] Get the accomodations now. My son has a similar profile and it was in 4th grade in an accelerated class that things started getting hairy. School was easy up until that point, then it was challenging for the first time and accomodations were increasingly necessary.[/quote]
