Ds has 16 long multiplications to do. He has done six (today's part as he doesn't want to do them all in one day).
Every single one is wrong. Wildly wrong. He was yelling at me for help with his times tables and whilst I didn't give him the answer, I did talk him through them. He really really should know them by now. But even the additions are wrong.
He is year five. I think the teacher should know he can't do them as I have raised that he was having an issue with them before (albeit a different one). I am torn though as I know I could re do them with him and I feel guilty/bad he is handing in a sheet of wrong answers.
They would probably say they would go over it at school but from prior experience they won't give him the help he needs. (We have asked three times for a dyslexia assessment!) I want them to see he struggles so he gets the help, but I feel guilty because I know I could help him and I am not one of those people that send kids in and expect education to be only the schools job. So I don't want him to 'fail' because I am expecting the school to help when they won't when I know I can.
Oh and I just checked his English and it is all wrong too. Sigh.
