IEP

First thing this morning was our IEP. At the meeting we had the principal, OT, speech, class teacher, resource class teacher, psychologist and Behavioral coach. We discussed academics and behavior. Most of it about coping skills and how on the evaluations he shows the intellect but as soon as stress shows up he cannot perform well.

There were a few suggestions and ideas. Officially he is out of speech at school. He has been in speech therapy since he was 1 1/2. This is huge!.

We did not have time to go over all the paperwork, it was mostly discussion time. There is another one set up on Feb 6th.

The behavioral coach stayed at school to observe him there and get an idea of the surroundings. She got a lot of info being there, and noticed a lot of things. Behaviors, interaction and coping skills.

After school he did pretty well, keeping busy with friends. He went to the neighbors house for a while. Later at night we went to someones house for dinner. He did good. Came back very late and he went to bed right away.
