Have spent most of the day typing up the strategies and things we use for ds2.
School want it :)
I may actually have enough to publish in to a ds2 owners manual!

This could be interesting!

You ought to approach some of the teacher training establishments and see if they want to buy it - or give you some lecturing work. My sister in law is doing her training at the moment and says that the SN and SEN training is woeful. She is only 22, no kids and with limited exposure of SN/SEN in the real world (her nephews, and teaching a few DC to swim) and she already knows more than is being taught! [shocked]

Grin

I remember taking the full load in to ds's old school, plus a cd copy of ALL his social stories and every strategy we'd ever used, and giving them to the Head/Senco a week after he'd been excluded for a meltdown in school.

The Head bollocked me because she felt the school should have had all of this before he started. I told her they did - I'd given it all to his class teacher in ds'sfirst week but he'd put it in the bottom of his drawer and forgotten about it.

At least the Head had the decency to blush Grin.

They never did implement any of the strategies, and four weeks later I pulled him out to HE. I know a dead horse when I see one.

Good luck Arsenic - hope they take notice!

:o
well they may take notice or not.
But where we have had a few comments on how he is doing okay at school.. Even though we are getting phone calls regularly to tell us about issues Confused

I hope and I will be explaining that before ds even gets to school he is trying to remember all this stuff ( that we take for granted) and then he goes into a non ds friendly environment, socially hostile ( in his world) and has to remember what and how .. And then he has to learn on top of all of that whilst having dyslexia!

It's no wonder he goes boom or non compliant sometimes!

Just for good measure I'm adding in a diary or good and bad days and to highlight his and our day routines!

Thank the Lordy most of it was already on the computer from doing the DLA form :)
