After processing everything this weekend and coming back into my class I was able to take a less overwhelmed look. I used some of your ideas as well. These are things you learn over and over but somehow get overlooked because its the simplest solution! We had foresight testing today and I took my more obvious LD students and gave them seats by themselves and used a lot more proximity. This helped them calm down immensely. It made my life and more importantly theirs easier. I am actually thinking about moving around my entire classroom based on that thought and its results. They will not be isolated but more spread apart. Overall it is nice to see progress after being so frustrated and after doubting my ability to help them.K.
