[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"It turns out there is a significant disparity between his ability and his processing speed. As the psychologist explained it, a slow computer and a fast computer will get to the same answer, but the slow computer needs a lot more time." I'm sure this exists and I'm happy your DC has a 504 and is managing. But I would like to bring up the idea that this diagnosis does not mean that processing speed can't be improved to some extent and in some ways. [/quote] PP of that post, and I agree, which is why we've done so much executive functioning/study skills work with ds. It's not just a question of accommodations on tests, it's recognizing where he has a harder time than other kids do and finding specific strategies to help him reach his potential.[/quote]
