Asher's neuropsych evaluation was about what I expected...I don't have a written report, as it was just the parent conference today.

Asher's IQ for three areas was between 92-99, so all fine there.

He's below grade level in a few areas...

One area I remember her saying was hard for him was a shopping list....he was supposed to remember a shopping list, and then even cluster the items in the list into categories (i.e. food, clothes, etc). Then after the first shopping list, he had to remember another one....yeah, that didn't go well.... She said that is a sign that he needs to learn math, take a break, work on reading, take a break, and separate each subject like that in order to process.

Memory even looked good, however, a test that has him look at faces and then asks which faces he remembers seeing was very difficult for him. I asked her if it could be due to vision problems (as she said a similar test that had dots was not as challenging as the faces).

She did notice testing anxiety.

She did not see attention problems.

She noticed he is still shy, but he has matured and had no problem having a different gal in the room performing the tests, even when she left.

She highly recommends I do a 504 plan....even just to address his loss of vision.

Next testing is in two years, I think, and she said she only tests ages 2-5 (she did Asher's as a favor and because she wanted to see how he was doing, she said), so we will be with a different doctor next time.

We should have the full report by the beginning of the school year, early August.
