Q:
Anyone know of a 504 plan for a Kindergartener with fine motor deficits?
My son is in a public school Kindergarten program. He was recently diagnosed with "fine motor deficits" that is causing him to have great difficulties in school (writing especially). He has "qualified" for the 504 plan, but I'm not sure how they are going to address his "fine motor issues". He also has some "attention" concerns that were determined as "not clinically significant". Any suggestions?

There should be an occupational therapist on your campus to help modify the classroom to help your son's fine motor deficits and to make recommendations to his teacher and hopefully you. She/he would be the one to evaluate your son more fully in this area if he has not already been evaluated since he has a "formal" diagnosis. If a therapist is not already involved, talk with her campus diagnostician or counselor. Its great that you are starting so early to help him!!!
