i have been away for a while i thank you all for your advise when i talked to my sons resource teacher at his annual to sign some papers he said in fact they would be retesting him at his 3 year evaluation, in fact the teacher said andre (my son) was doing awesome at math he is now nine if he keeps it up we will introduce him to multiplication soon and he is now participating in a reading group he is at about 1st grade level as far as reading he is making progress it has been a lot of hard work but i am finally getting through to him. his teacher also sent home math papers with about 100 problems (358+428= them type of problems) he completed them in seven minutes with one mistake pretty good for a child with a IQ of 57. so i think when we retest him i think we will see better results, we are looking into aspergers at his reevaluation his teacher is going to suggest he get tested for it. i also been reading up on nld that profile fits him as well.
thank you for all the good advise

Re: Awesome! :-)
yes he has been with this recource room teacher well this is his third year and he will have him until middle school or until we decide he can handle middle school i was told that it is my right to keep him in the elementry school until he is thirteen. i hope we wont have to, i think by then his self esteem should be better :-)
Take *lots* of notes about the things this teacher is doing. Will he have the same teacher next year?
