[quote=Anonymous]OP, Push to get the hours in during the school day. In addition, i’d also recommend you might consider purchasing an OG based reading curriculum for home use instead of adding additional tutoring hours. If you don’t work late into the evening doing something like All About Reading or Barton (for severe dyslexia) may get make more sense. It’s not complicated to do at home, you could do it in increments of 30-45 minutes a couple of times a week or daily for 20 minutes rather than spending the time driving to a therapist. I’d ask for decreased school homework load in exchange. I’m a somewhat non-traditional teacher, but the argument can easily be made that 30 minutes a day of intervention as “homework” is more productive than an hour of homework, which is sometimes just busywork, at a level well above where your child is reading. Research does not support homework at the elementary school level anyway.[/quote]
