[quote=Anonymous]OP - you should definitely follow up about your teacher failing to implement the IEP.

But, I have a kid with ADHD and one of the things we are really working on is following the directions. Its the main thing we discuss with him. Just imagine you are a boss and you ask your employee to do something - you want what you asked for, right? Not just what you think they wanted or what you think is right.

When he is doing homework, I constantly ask - go back to the rubric - what does it say? Did you do all the parts? Yesterday my DS had to re-do an entire science project because he was supposed to pick articles for the essay that were written in 2019, but he picked older ones and had to re-do it.

Whenever he has a test --- I remind him as he leaves for school --- read all the questions carefully, do all the parts, look on the back of the paper, etc.

I think it's great that 6th grade teachers do this---so that when your kid gets to high school when it counts, they will have learned the lesson.  It's a hard lesson for ADHD kids but it's an important one.[/quote]
