In PA…my son is Autistic, 9 and in 3rd grade. He just had a RR and he is below average in math, writing, and reading comprehension which we know because he’s been struggling. His meeting is coming up. Currently he is still being presented with the grade level material which is faster paced and above his level of understanding. This is causing lots of anxiety which is leading to aggression. I want to be sure going into the meeting what to expect. My expectation would be that they should be providing him material at his level. Right now he’s shutting down and not learning anything. He has lots of great accommodations in his IEP currently and a 1:1, but those won’t help him understand material if it’s too hard for him. Any suggestions to make sure I am asking for what he needs at the meeting?
