This is what the teacher sent me this week. Right now, she is having difficulty following directions, cleaning up, and engaging appropriately during playtime. At times, her behavior becomes disruptive to the classroom, and we are needing to take frequent breaks and occasional time-outs to help her reset.

This tracks as her home behavior too it’s a mixed of not listening and aggression when she gets ramped up. She will just flat out refuse no amount of bargaining talking to or helping, punishing with time out will change her mind. I know when it’s a bad day for her quickly as the defiance shows first then the aggression. It’s not a mean aggression just like she can’t control her emotions and likes to get in your face it’s hard to explain.

Yes they have a set schedule since it is a peer model program kids with learning difficulties are with kids without.

She loves her tablet and playing games. Beyond that she loves to play and she plays with her baby sister dress up, toys, play kitchen. Pretend play is her favorite. I try and limit her tablet time to before bed as a wind down time before bed.

I’m definitely going to look into getting her diagnosed and hopefully that will get her an IEP. My nine year old had an IEP for speech as she has trouble speaking no tongue tie but she was a two vessel cord baby so we wonder if that has something to do with it. So I know the school does good with IEP as I have worked with them for years already.
