[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can she identify letters?  As in, does she know how to spell her name using magnet letters?  Or scrabble tile letters?  Can she tell you the right letters in her name and as you write them as she prompts you, can she tell if you are writing the correct letter?  Does she point out letters when you are reading "look, that's the B like in my name!"

I bet she can do all or most of these things.

IF YES then I wouldn't worry now.  If no, then keep an eye out for challenges with learning to read and if this continues when she is 5 years of age, you can have a full workup for learning disabilities like dyslexia.  But, probably, she is just fine, writing letters is HARD![/quote]

OP here. Yes, she can identify letters and she can write her name. But that’s something they practiced extensively at school.

I’m not stressed about it as in it’s keeping me up awake at night. I am just wondering if she is slow because some of her peers can write letters. I’m also not expecting her to do that but when I write H and ask her to imitate, she can’t. She also has a hard time differentiating M and N.[/quote]
