[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP Again.  All we are asking for is extra time on tests and keyboarding.  Executive function help (someone who can go over assignments with him and help him organize) would be nice too, but since I know that's more elusive, I don't care about that one as much.  The first two are pretty concrete, and those are the ones I care about the most.  That's it.  Nothing unusual or unreasonable, in my opinion.  [/quote]

Would he actually use the extra time?  Is he not finishing tests in time?  Are you looking for extra time for projects and homework?  Are you wanting keyboarding for tests and assignments or for them to teach him to keyboard.

I actually thought that kids were keyboarding for tests and assignments since covid but  I guess that’s not the case. For extra time, if it’s for assignments and projects you can probably develop means of assistance at home to make sure he’s getting everything done timely and well. And as many of us whose kids have the extra time accommodation, it’s not really that great. There’s always a final due date and all extra time does for a lot of kids is to kick the fan don the road and increase anxiety. And they often don’t elect to use the extra time for tests. [/quote]
