[quote=Anonymous]Extra time is not going to help people without adhd or other issues in may cases. I have a teen with adhd-very clear that she has it-diagnosed with inattentive aged 6 and would forget her head if it wasn’t attached. Complete space cadet in class a lot of the time, needs scaffolding and reminders to complete a basic morning and evening routine, etc etc etc. She’s very smart though and for the most part likes school and is a fast worker. not only have we never sought time and a half but she would hate it if she had it-she almost always finishes among the first on exams. I am writing this to say that 1) adhd kids look all kinds of different ways 2) time and a half isn’t a boon for people who don’t need it. I think if kids are benefiting from extra time they probably need it. [/quote]
