[quote=Anonymous]My DS11 has "moderate" dyslexia and he's doing great with the reading portion of the LD. After years of remediation, he is better at reading aloud in class than most of his other classmates because of intensive and sustained practice. It's the other stuff that will need to be consciously attended to - like handwriting, spelling, executive function, and like a PP said, getting lost. We attempt to work on it like he's working on reading. We'll print a map of the neighborhood and circle our house and then randomly circle another point and tell him to find it. If he doesn't have an innate sense of direction, that's fine but there are other learned skills that can compensate for that. [/quote]
