[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you want to work with him on it at home, this is a good resource - https://www.allaboutlearningpress.com/all-about-spelling/ My ds was diagnosed with a form a dyslexia that results in horrible spelling. He is able to read very well (decode), but has poor writing (encode). And reading did not come easy to him, but he did eventually figure it out and now reads at a high level. We paid out of pocket for testing at Mindwell. It showed a very specific phonological processing disorder. It was helpful to understand what was going on with him. [/quote] Thanks for mentioning this. Having similar issues with 8 yo DC. Reading came slowly and painfully, but it’s coming. Writing and spelling and still very problematic. Going to Mindwell for testing later this year. Good to hear they were able to pinpoint the problem for your DC.[/quote]
