[quote=RedTailHawk]DD is currently in 5th grade and I am trying to better understand the middle school environment as part of planning for next year. My understanding is that the middle school model is students needing extra help give up one of their electives to have resource room time. I think there are some middle school para educators but those are more likely to be paired with specific kids with physical or perhaps behavioral challenges. Is this accurate? In her current school there are frequently para educators in the classrooms which is helpful to her, especially when navigating group work with peers and when her stress level is too high. (If it matters, DD is very 2E and gets upset easier than classmates. The emotions get in the way of stuff making it to long term memory. She is above grade level according to all tests. She struggles socially and all her close friends are boys.) Thanks![/quote]
