[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 217208, member: 3419"] Regular teaching and classwork worked until a few wks ago. He started out the yr with-a bang. Then he came to a screaching halt. We don't know why. The teacher and principal were not aware that he had a true Learning Disability (LD) until this past wk. They knew he had been held back a grade, but up until now, we weren't using the word "Asperger's" or even talking about Learning Disability. I don't feel badly about ISS. I do not think of it as a negative. If this were my easy child, then I would see it as a negative. I think it's a positive move. We are trying to find motivators for him. This is one thing we are trying. The objective is to show him that not completing assignments is unacceptable. It is to remove him from distractions and have him focus on the work. And yes, it is to make sure he really understands the work. The teacher is going to visit him during suspension, and teach him what she's teaching the class. Somehow she has to squeeze in the same lesson twice ea day. She is bending over backward for us. I think I failed to mention that in the other note. What she doesn't have time to do, the prinicipal will do. The principal was/is a teacher and loves to teach. She would much rather be doing that than bureaucratic paperwork. She travels to ea classroom and tries to teach every wk, if not every day. Does that answer your questions? [/QUOTE]
