[quote=Anonymous]Agree with the prior pp. The kinds of accommodations a special needs child can get in an IEP do help the entire class. If a child needs more help in math and is keeping the rest of the class from progressing, he/she can be pulled out and have math with the resource teacher.  If the child at issue talks during tests and distracts other kids from doing their best, the IEP can stipulate that this child take his tests alone in a room with a para.  There are more but I think you get the drift. Without an IEP -- a legal document -- none of these types of accommodations can be implemented and both the special needs child and the rest of the kids in his/her class are adversely affected. And please don't refer to us as the SN crowd.  We understand where you are coming from and we don't want our child's situation and difficulties to affect your child.  Please think what you would want if it was your child who wasn't a typical learner or who has no social skills or whatever. I think that you would want compassion from other parents while you figured out what to do and set up a plan with the school.  I am a prior pp who said to discuss this with the principal how this child affects your child's ability to learn. That will help the ball rolling faster on getting this kid the accommodations he/she needs and a better learning environment for everyone.[/quote]
