[quote=Anonymous]I will bring this up to her teacher at the next parent-teacher conference but I was hoping to get more points of view in the meantime. My almost 6 year old has been sounding out words since she was 3. We thought she was going to be a really early reader. But she has made almost zero progress in the years since. She still reads entirely by sounding out, recognizes almost no words by sight other than her name, and gets exhausted and frustrated after one sentence. Her writing is actually what's making me wonder if something else is going on. Today she wanted to write "you are" and she wrote "ouy era". Almost exactly backwards. Is it possible she has dyslexia or some other disorder, or am I overreacting? Thanks for any insights! [/quote]
