DD is in primary 3 in mainstream school. She has a rare condition resulting in ataxic cp diagnosis. Her behaviour at home is either super or appalling, 0 to 100 mph tantrums for something as simple as being asked to put her shoes on. We see psychologist once a month for this.
She's doing great academically and as a result gets no support in class. Up until now school been saying she's a model pupil and when we mention home behaviour they look at us In disbelief but her new teacher has painted a different picture. She tells us dd is fidgety in class, gets up out seat when not supposed too, shouts out when not her turn or if she needs to say something, entertains herself by looking through bag : lunchbox & playing with pencil case when teacher is talking. This sound more like DD to me but what can we do to help her?
Does this behaviour sound familiar to anybody? How can we help her sit still & stay focused in class, doesn't like her move & sit cushion as says it hurts her bottom and she fidgets that much when on it she loses her balance and falls off chair.
Sorry for long post
