Everybody,
You all have really given me a lot to think about. My son’s tutor told me today that he is learning and can learn the math, but he is learning it from her not in class. So…I think I will talk to his sp.ed teacher about getting him some aid time in class and then to the high school and see if I can get someone who can come over on a reg. basis. My son has been thinking about this too I think, he made the point to me last night that if he goes to the resource room for math, he won’t have the skills to take algebra class in high school. I told him he had a valid point. Which goes with what Victoria said about keeping him in the reg. class.
To let you know something about this class, it is the teacher’s policy that all students can redo hw and every Tues. all students can retake tests. My son’s tutor believes the kids should be learning in class and shouldn’t all need to redo and retake. My son is not the only child taking advantage of this policy, he’s just one of few that has it in writing that he is allowed to whether a teacher policy or not.
Thanks to all of you for helping me out.
Amy
