[quote=Anonymous]OP here again. You guys are absolutely right. I am so frustrated with the school right now. They are focusing too much on what makes sense for their needs and their schedule (and what would be easiest for them!) and not enough on my DD's individual plan and goals. Luckily we have both a very effective procedural support liaison in our school pyramid and a very smart reading specialist we have hired. Both of them see my daughters strengths and the problem with her current plan.  She is actually doing so well on so many things but they are taking the wrong approach to solving problems as they arise. On top of that I don't really believe they are teaching to her strengths. It is so much harder than it is supposed to be. I originally asked this question because this "correction" behavior is one of the many issues they are bringing up as a reason for more special Ed hours. I think her special Ed teacher fundamentally doesn't understand the difference between mainstreaming and inclusion...and every IEP she includes a soliloquy on why she loves inclusion and how great it is for everyone. If only she knew what she was talking about....at least we believe in what we fighting for and know how it supposed to work. I fee even worse for those kids whose parents don't know or don't have the time to fight these issues.[/quote]
