[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Struggling with this too OP. My 4th grader with SN struggles even more in this format. Endless slides and solo work doesn’t click for her. Math is impossible and it’s her worst area by far. I don’t want to stop completely but school is anxiety inducing for her and home has ALWAYS been the place where she can exist without anxiety. I can’t make home into school and bring that performance anxiety and fear here. I can’t do it. We are doing what we can and it’s not nearly all of it but doing it all would be impossible for her. I am a teacher so I know very well that despite what schools are saying and even in good faith trying, they can not replicate or provide those services and accommodations kids need at a distance.[/quote]

Smilar NP here.

OP: We talk to the teacher and Sped pretty regularly and tell them what we are doing. For example, when I don't do the official math assignment, I tell them what we did do. I'm also taking this time to remediate and teach new skills (typing). It's working so far. There's no grading and everybody  moves on. Feel free to "unschool" but I wouldn't suggest un-enrolling.

You aren't doing unschooling you are doing a curriculum that works better for your child.  They should teach all kids typing, especially now.  One of the best things we did.  [/quote]
