[quote=Anonymous]So she is dyslexic, yes? A couple of reasons it matters what you call it: first, so you can do your own reading (Overcoming Dyslexia and The Dyselxia Empowerment Plan are great books to start with) and second, because there are evidence-based programs for dyslexia that you want the school to provide, and they might not do that. You want the school to provide Orton Gillingham program. There are a few packages that are all fine. Your daughter will likely need outside tutoring - it seems almost universally true. Also, as time goes by, look at math. Some dyslexics are tripped up in math by the reading required but also the working memory needed. That starts to appear a little later, like 3rd grade.[/quote]
