[quote=Anonymous]I have a son with the same diagnoses, although his reading level was always below grade leave so he qualified for an IEP and services.  We were also in FCPS. He did receive Wilson in school, but it was not enough to make progress.  as a result, he went to a private tutor from mid2nd grad to mid 7th grade 2-3 times a week.  We also got as many audio books to listen to at home and on the road.  From the library, Learning Ally and Bookshare.  Arlington Central library has a large collection that we tapped for years.  We also did home reading work on the days that he did not have tutoring.

He also dictated his written homework until he was proffiecient on the keyboard.  This lasted until the end of his sophomore year of high school.  We worked on keyboarding in the summer, 20 minutes a day and he progressed, but so did his thinking and dictating skills. Graphic organizers were also helpful.  In MS and HS (and now in college) he received many accommodations so that he could take Honors and AP classes.  [/quote]
