Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 I am so busy with school and life I haven’t had a chance to write. We had a second IEP meeting for my son . He is listed as having an ED, then LD and third Aspie. I agreed to put him ED so that we would have an easier time moving him to a more restricted environment if we need to. He is now in the resource room full time. They have a reward chart for . When he gets 5 minutes of productive work time in he circles the 5 minutes and when he gets 20 minutes he gets a prize (Whatever he wants to pick.) When he gets 4 of the 20 minutes he gets a bigger prize. We are taking in his favorite computer game in to load on the schools computer, so every Friday if he was productive during the week he can play the game at school. He seems to be doing better. Yesterday he had only a half day at school, but he did very well. We noticed that during the school day around 2 PM he would start to not want to do anything. His Abilify has a half life and we found out when the half life wears off (around 2 PM!) he starts to not want to do anything. So he now takes a dose at school at 2 PM (2.5 mg) that seems to be helping too. Starting in the next week he is going to have a paraprofessional from where he goes and sees his therapist come to the school and work with him on social cues and being productive. So, things are going really well here! Mommy to – 9 – Aspie – 8 – ADHD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
