[quote=Anonymous]IIRC, you are supposed to complete certain level(s) of All About Reading before moving to All about Spelling, so you could still start with AAR. I don't know that I'd focus a lot on writing without getting reading and spelling down more solidly, unless for some reason the CP diagnosis is expected to cause permanent reading issues. Reading and spelling are supposed to become automatic, which would then reduce the cognitive load with writing. It sounds like now that the spelling may be inhibiting how many ideas he can get on paper and how fast? This would be, for instance, if he can verbally respond with a lot more detail and substance than shows up when he answers a question on paper. Does he have working memory issues? And I assume he's been tested for dyslexia?[/quote]
