[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This isn't a disability. She needs to up her self-esteem so she's confident talking to the teachers and in front of her peers. [/quote] Low self esteem and shyness are different from one another. A person can be shy and not have low self esteem. A person can have low self esteem and not be shy. Shyness has more to do with introversion and learned behaviors so that is why I believe teachers can help thus the question on how/if her 504 plan can be used. Since her 504 centers around organization and slow processing, I see the connection between being able to successfully respond quickly when called on suddenly...getting thoughts processed and verbalized. Accommodations should be allowed but what would they be?[/quote]
