[quote=Anonymous]Per I-ready, my 8 year old with ADHD was at grade level throughout 2nd grade, but she seems a bit behind to me. She reads graphic novels, but struggles with books with more text. When she reads aloud, she frequently skips short words and makes guesses instead of sounding things out. Her spelling is completely phonetic, but very bad—e.g. “sed” for “said” and many similar mistakes. She doesn’t let her poor spelling stop her from writing little stories, which is good—she really likes to write and illustrate little stories. We are starting OG tutoring to help with the reading and spelling. Is it still worthwhile to get testing for dyslexia or will the tester just tell me to continue with the tutoring. The testing is very expensive so I don’t want to do it unless it’ll direct us to do something different. [/quote]
