[quote=Anonymous]Making up (filling in) words rather than sounding them out, getting certain sound combinations wrong frequently, resisting reading (looking back, because it required more energy than it would for the average child). Terrible spelling. Read Sally Shaywitz' book Overcoming Dyslexia. She has checklists of issues to note for different ages. The younger a child is the harder it is to detect, but her point is that done right, you can gather information at a much younger age than the school systems tell you. (The school systems often prefer to wait till 3rd grade before asking the question.) [/quote]
