[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need the cognitive test first and then the WJ-III or WIAT and then maybe the test of written language to really tease out the writing issues. Submit a parent referral to special education or ask to have a student support meeting. You can request it and they have to follow the legal timeline. Bring your own work samples and note how long it takes your child to write at home. Good luck!!![/quote] I would also ask for testing that evaluates oral language. Oral expression is the basis of written expression. My DS has very high verbal IQ and can talk up a storm, but testing of oral expression made it clear how disorganized his oral speech was. It was no wonder writing was tough. [/quote]
