[quote=Anonymous]Watch the age norms they use too. I caught one member of our original IEP team throwing around inaccurate terms like average/ typical etc for my severely dyslexic DDs reading performance. We did private testing and knew what we were dealing with in late K. They were trying to convince us to wait and see if she would catch up. So every time they used a term like that I asked them to define it and then in the moment looked up the actual score distributions/ labels in the reports with the team. That person stopped coming to the meetings, she was the “reading specialist” who knew nothing about dyslexia. [/quote]
