BlankCan anyone help? I just got my ex's signed copy of Wayne's IEP and in

remarks he put he requested CAPT testing. What ever I have found about CAPT

testing has been for tenth graders and has something do do with Connecticut

Aptitude or something. IS this the same?

Why would he want this for a child entering 5th grade unless I have it

confused with something else.

Thanks

It could be CAPD? Central Auditory Processing Disorder.

>> Ruth,> My son also has very strong vocabulary. He just can't express hisfeelings or ask for something his needs. or explain a certainsituation. This is my son also. Rose, part of this is autism, i.e., the theoryof mind issues. You might want to look that up too. Theory of mindis being aware of other people's thoughts and being able to anticipatethem and how they play out. We typical people do lots of mind-readingwithout thinking that autistic people can't do. Part of the reasonyour son doesn't ask for things is because he isn't aware that youdon't already know he needs them. He may not be aware that otherpeople know things he doesn't, so he doesn't think to ask for help. And there are the sensory issues, like my

son not being able to tellthe difference between a tummyache and being hungry until he was inlate elementary.> the speech teacher is working with my son with his writing skillsand he's not good with spelling. it took him a long time to get thehang of writing a paragraph. he couldn't even write a sentence with acomplete thought. See, my son doesn't have this problem, in general. He is even atalented writer. But his stories are all physical action and dialog.He has an incredible time with assignments where he has to express anopinion or get into more abstract, generalizing thoughts. He can't doit on his own, and sometimes he just can't get what they are asking.And part of this is executive dysfunction. Another thing for you tolook up! Poor working memory and slow processing speed, my son hasboth, cause a person to have difficulty processing, organizing, andspitting back out their

thoughts.There's really a lot of neurological stuff going on behind the poorsocial skills in Asperger.Ruth
