A teacher who observes a child over time in a classroom setting can provide parents with valuable information as to how he or she is able to learn and function in school in all of the ways that he or she should be able to for his or her age and grade level. If a teacher and parents feel that a child has apparent problems learning to read, write, listen, speak, or do math, then it is appropriate to further investigate those concerns. Such investigations may appropriately include a comprehensive evaluation by appropriate professionals—neuropsychologist, school psychologist, special education teacher, etc.—to clarify specific learning problems and also to rule out any other issues that may be affecting a student’s educational progress and functioning.
