Re: Maybe it's just me

-'s handwriting is llke this, his teacher's at his previous

school would comment on it being sloppy in reports (not to him with

a frowny face).I could never figure that out, he is pdd, lots of

normal 5,6,7 year olds have sloppy handwriting. However, he is also

in a new school for precisely that reason. Some teachers look to

criticize. What about a drs handwriting, its just awful. What goes

through these peoples heads-it must not be reasonable thoughts.

BTW Sissi, did you see the handwriting I put in files today from ? And

his teacher has never said a freaking word about it, and marks his spelling

tests perfect when the words are spelled perfectly yet illegibly, and puts a

GOOD comment on them for the work he's done!

I'm starting to wonder if this wouldn't work. She's obviously baiting me.

She wants me to do something. She probably wants me to show my ass.

But what if I did?

It would certainly mean people would have to start listening.

Sissi -- thinking crazy now?

I thought so. Is there no other class he could go to? This is sooooo unfair to

Boone.

Hi Sissi,

What is the teacher expecting, perfect cursive script? I think that

is perfect for a kindergartener! That worksheet looked like it was

geared more toward first or second grade, though. Ethan has never

come home with anything like that.

Boone's handwriting looks much like Ethan's does. It took Ethan

almost a full six weeks to learn just his first name, and then he

wrote it completely backwards (letters and right to left) and now he

refuses to lower case his vowels (EthAn) and his teacher has NEVER

put a horrible comment on his paper like that!!

I'd suggest to the teacher (this is just me though) that her opinions

such as " you can do better " be sent *to you* with her suggestions on

what she feels needs improvement and not written on Boone's work.

If that didn't work I'd go to the principal with my concerns! That

is totally degrading to his self esteem!
