[quote=Anonymous][quote]They spend 35-45 minutes a day with me. I am not a miracle worker. I have 5-6 year olds who are developmentally are about where my 3 year old son is. It takes years to overcome the poor early environment these kids grow up in.[/quote] In your post you said that the students were in school from 7 am to 6:30 pm. They may only be with YOU for 35-40 minutes but unless you were exaggerating they are in the MCPS building for 11.5 hours a day. Could one of your colleagues provide some instruction during those 11.5 hours?? If this child is 2 years behind developmentally why is the child not on an IEP? Why does he not have IEP goals and pull out services? Why is developmentally delayed a LD in a high SES school and just a sign of a poor early environment in a low SES school? It takes years for special needs kids to develop techniques to work through their disabilities. This is true for rich and poor kids. [/quote]
