We do have a great team we work with, the problem is nothing tried has worked so far. So I thought I would try something different in hopes that I could find something that might work better. Lately, I have been feeling like the have given up hope on him progressing.

Thanks for the suggestions. His therapists use HWOT, so I use it too to remain consistent. His small motor skills are limited so he doesn't use the computer and can't write yet. I have tried starfall and it didn't work for him. Tablets work best, he can still for about 3 minutes, then needs about an half hour break. If he seizes, he sleeps for about an hour, then we must repeat whatever we worked on previously. The reading sites look interesting. Are they teaching whole language reading? Do they work for children who don't recognize the alphabet? Or do they help with that too?

Thank you, you have given me much food for thought. I need to research ABA. I do agree with diet. I have done the GF, CF diet with him and also the Feingold diet. I plan on starting back in another month or so, the combination of both worked well for him. Every ittle bit helps.

I have been homeschooling him from the beginning, this year I opted for dual enrollment at the middle school so he goes there 2 days a week ( they are working on learning community signs), he does his therapies one and a half days a week also. No methods have worked thus far. He may fixate on a topic ie:cowboys, then we read about it and for weeks he will ask the same questions over and over about the subject. My goals are for him to learn the alphabet, numbers and to teach him to write. He has no interest in playing. Long time lurker!! Thanks for the welcome.

Looking for help with teaching one of my children who has an intellectual disability. His IQ is 49, he has PDD, epilepsy, ADHD, sensory issues and his ability to retain is very low. He is however very verbal. He is working at a preschool/preK level and is 11yo.
