[quote=Anonymous]What's more typical for children with a 504 or an IEP in the later years is to get modified homework -- e.g. do every other math problem instead of the entire set. It really needs to be tailored to each child's specifics but OP you should pull back now so that hte school will see the issues more clearly. The suggestion to limit how much time you spend on it (30 minutes or an hour) is good. Then SAVE copies of that work, and include it in a written request for an IEP. You should also provide the information documenting her ADHD diagnosis. She may be doing well enough that the IEP isn't needed - but asking for that (instead of for a 504) and showing that without supports she can't do the work independently -- is essential. You definitely want to have this in place before middle school. Good luck. [/quote]
