[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once this year, to explain ADHD, ask for some light accommodations (preferential seating near high achievers at the front of class rooms and just a few check-ins to make sure he's not daydreaming), and advise on how to support him at home. He was almost failing the class, so I felt I had to be proactive. [/quote] How annoying - this mom is dragging down my high achieving kid with her troublemaker. [/quote] As a teacher I don’t agree with “preferential seating” and only comply to the barest minimum. I’m definitely not letting someone disrupt kids who otherwise do their work. [/quote] I understand this be her ADHD kid is inattentive and easily distracted, but not disruptive. She wants her kid sitting near the front and near high achievers bc he would be easily distracted by the naughty kids (probably also adhd) in the back. I can see why she asks, but someone has to sit next to those kids… so whether it’s fair to comply, probably not. [/quote]
