[quote=Anonymous]https://dyslexia.yale.edu/dyslexia/signs-of-dyslexia/ Check out the above link. I noticed similar things with my child in first grade. She too was at grade level and the teacher didn’t recognize signs of dyslexia at all. We also noticed sequencing issues, difficulty telling time, and spelling was a real challenge. We had her tested at the end of first grade. She is severely dyslexic and has dyscalculia. I always tell people to trust their intuition and that one of the biggest signs to me was that it didn’t make sense that she was having such a hard time learning to read. We knew she was smart but why wasn’t it transferring to reading skills. We found out how many compensating strategies a dyslexic child can use to make it look like they are doing ok. You do have a point about not receiving regular instruction this year but if you have concerns, I would really look into it. [/quote]
