[quote=Anonymous]I know that for my child with HFA, being challenged in her area of strength would make it easier to get through the day, not harder. Who wants to spend all day working hard in your area of challenge, and then being bored when you finally get to something you're good at? My child feels proud of her accomplishments, just like every other kid, and it teachers her the tools (perseverance, etc.) that she can apply in her areas of challenge. It's easier for her to learn those tools in the context of something she enjoys. For example, she struggles with reading, but her teachers say she reads better when reading word problems during math than she does during reading class. I'd push to get her into the higher level math class, OP.[/quote]
