This week the 4th graders are doing the Connecticut Mastery Tests. DS FINALLY has a 504 for the very first time - giving him extra time to complete the test and a bubbler.
I was waiting for the bus today when I received a phone call from the school -one of the specialists that has been in all of our meetings for the past 4 years . . .my heart is in my stomach . . . she was in the room with DS - today was the writing prompt (yikes - dysgraphic son) . . . all I could think was - he couldn't finish, something went wrong . . . - she called to tell me that DS's handwriting was fantastic!
She said it was legible, the spacing and alignment looked great . . . she was so proud of him and called to let me know that at least something is going right this year! She made my month!!!! She told this to the principal and to DS as well - he was mighty proud! So all that work with the Handwriting Without Tears program has paid off!
Just wanted to share my very first good phone call from the school!!!
