DS has great difficulty with maths - he would almost certainly have a diagnosis of dyscalculia in the UK but it's not recognised where he goes to school. He has a language vocabulary test coming up. He's refusing to learn it because it's time (a quarter past whatever etc) and he cannot tell the time. He can just about do the full hours but nothing more.
Usually he learns all his vocabulary and gets good marks on his tests. The practice sheet is a list of blank clocks they have to fill in. He can't. He has a TA for maths but not for the language class.
Is it a step too far to send a mail to the language teacher and ask her to chat with the TA before he has the test? I mean I know that she probably wont do anything, and she can't really change the test to make it "easier" for him as that's not fair on the others. But if he has to do it, I can see him either refusing (and so losing marks on the words he could learn) quietly, loudly or in floods of tears.
I think I should warn her because the class teacher 99.5% won't have.
