It's Not the Lesson He Was Intended to Learn

Tossing and turning so I have to vent. My son is a 4th grader with severe learning disabilities. His teacher gave him a two page list of Nebraska mammals and birds a month ago. You were to document when/where you saw them. Parents even had to sign off. We live on the edge of a rural community so we were able to see a few things in our yards and neighbors. But I took him to parks, drives out in the country and burned gas money we should have spent on food. But we were only able to see 6 things. I stressed over and over we were going to be honest and only check off what we saw. Well, tomorrow he has to stay in from their rare recess to do a report with the other students who didn't turn in anything because his grade was less than 50%. No one has ever taught them how to do a report so he is in a panic. With his reading disability he isn't going to be able to read out of reference books and put things in his own words. I emailed the teacher that info. But Jonas came to me with what he learned. You will be punished if you are honest. You know I agree.
