	This is what we received on the afternoon of the last day of school before Christmas break. No evidence or proof, no work examples or observation checklists. Just the results.
</p>

<p>
	At a mtg on Jan12, we will be requesting to modify our daughter’s curriculum after a semester of accommodations not helping her. She has a FSIQ of 67, less than the third percentile in all math and reading comprehension tests. She cannot read a clock or compute 12-4 without a calculator. But we’re being told she’s nearly to all of her IEP goals(?!)
</p>

<p>
	This progress monitoring is undoubtedly going to be used as a counterargument to say she does not need modifications to the curriculum. She earns less than 30% on all assessments, in all subjects. She has no idea what’s going on.
</p>

<p>
	I have the right to understand “how” they’re conducting these PM sessions, in detail, right? And to see her work with my eyes?
</p>

<p>
	We suspect she’s being spoon fed these tasks.

	This is my child's most recent IEP Amendment (as of 5/22/25).  The meeting was held to make sure that a plan was in place to help her prepare for middle school. She is a rising 6th grader. She has dyslexia and ADHD (diagnosed by school in spring of 3rd grade 2023; private eval Jan of 4th grade 2024).  She is roughly around a 3rd grade reading level (up from Kindergarten or first at the end of 4th grade) which I believe is mostly from her private tutoring with Dyslexia on Demand 1 hour 3 days a week (has been using this tutoring service since Sept 2024). 
</p>

<p>
	I want to be sure  this IEP sounds ok. Is this the best the public school system can do to help her at this point?  I want to send her to a dyslexia specialty school, but if finances don't allow, I will have to continue her tutoring pattern, and wanted to be sure her public school was doing all they should as well. I can never tell what is enough/what they can and can't do/should be doing etc.
</p>

<p>
	All advice is welcome.

	Hello All,  I am doing research to help prepare my "ask" for writing interventions/accommodations for my teenager son who had dyslexia and written expression issues.  Wanted to share with the group.  Hope you find it useful.  There are more infographics here:  www.callscotland.org.uk
