[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In MCPS, I tried paper analogues in the 504. The problem is that analogues don’t exist often - the Spanish game to reinforce vocab doses t have a paper equivalent (not even a vocab list exists to stare out!). And so on in all classes. It’s infuriating but I haven’t found a solution. Either my kid’s ADHD interferes with his education or the school system’s lack of paper options does. #progress[/quote] This is a situation where private school might be appropriate. Either in scholarship or by suing for placement.[/quote] I don’t think there’s any way to get around it at any school. The most we can do is get 1:1 tutors for the key skills, then mitigate the damages by getting IEP or 504 provisions that means a teacher can’t just stick our kid in front of a screen then ding them when they don’t get the work done. They need chances to redo and ideally more accomodations/supports to keep them on task in class. [/quote]
