[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again - I should add my husband (whose father is the one with Dyslexia, btw) is super resistant to this. He thinks she's making great progress. She went from reading at a late K level at the beginning of second grade to an early second grade level at the end of second grade - is that great progress? He thinks I'm nuts and doesn't want me to spend all this money on testing, this has been some of the hesitation.[/quote] If you don't agree on spending the money on testing, put that the money towards a tutor instead. Start it right now. See where she's at by winter break.[/quote] OP read Overcoming Dyslexia by Shaywitz. It scared the heck out of me to realize that without intervention DD would keep falling further and further behind her peers. DD was less than a grade level behind and teachers thought she was fine in 1st and 2nd grade but her confidence was already rapidly eroding.[/quote]
