Guest guest Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Hi Everyone, I was wondering whether any of you had experienced incomplete classwork being sent home to complete. My son is an 11 year old with Aspergers, auditory processing, visual processing, attention and other learning disabilities who is mainstreamed with an aide. He is in 5th grade and has been getting a lot of homework. Because of his numerous issues homework takes us a long time!! It takes at least 2 hours per night. In addition to the homework I have noticed that additional work is being sent home and that work is not listed on the teachers website. When I approached the in class support teacher she is not straightforward with me. Today she told me that she is trying to space out his work and give him a head start so he has less on his plate through the process. How is it less on his plate when it is being sent home for me to work on with him? I have hired one of the resource room teachers to work with him after school and was told that the in class support is giving her work to do that he is not completing in class. I have tried to speak with the in class support about how long the work takes him and she basically told me she could not believe it. The case manager is even worse to deal with so I am at a crossroads. I think that my son is already stressed with the homework why send him additional work. Is there another perspective that I am missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
