Hey Lea -- we just did a 504 for our oldest son who is in 6th grade.
With his, getting the information in the agenda is huge. I suggested
they give him his assignments on a piece of paper rather than depend on
him to copy them from the board. In leu of that, I actually right them
in from the schools website, and they check him out. Since
organization is one of his major issues, he has a full set of his text
books at home so he doesn't have to remember what book to bring home to
get home work done. He is to also sit toward the front of the class,
preferably near a good "role model" type of person. Lastly, if there
is stuff that needs handed out (worksheets, etc), they ask him to do it.

A website I found very help is: http://schwablearning.org/

I actually printed some of the articles that applied to our son and
gave them to the teachers ... they may not take the time to look for
info, so I thought if I gave it to them, they are more likely to learn
more.

Good luck! Becci
