We officially took Galen off of special Ed this year. Which is logical, considering he wasn't using it, but scary knowing how far he had yet to go.

It is hard to know how much of his schoolwork he does on his own. Jenny is always there with him. On the standard tests he scores a year or do behind. But tests have never been an accurate measure of his understanding.

I want him/ need him to gain independence in his school work. At home he is s hard worker when he is given clear directions. Without clear directions he becomes a sweatshirted lump. So with schoolwork he needs to learn how to tease out the clear directions from the other information.(ain't that the truth in life?)

Now I need to figure out how to clearly convey these ideas to Jenny so she can help move it forward.
