[quote=Anonymous]I am sure you are doing what you can to not stress her. Just tell her kids learn at different rates and you know she will get it, and emphasize other strengths. You can do short activities, though. She needs to automatically come up with a sound when she sees a letter. Don’t do all the letters at once. Pick maybe five and hold one up, like B, and she should quickly say the sound. It needs to be automatic. Add in more cards as she masters them, and don’t do more than a few minutes at a time. Then work on word families. Start with -at. When she knows that, add on letters to the beginning, to make rat, sat, cat, etc. She should get to say them quickly. You can write them in cards and put them face down and play Memory with them. With such a solid IQ, I would have her tested for possible LD. But above all, don’t stress her and just read to her tons.[/quote]
