[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. She is not focusing at school, but she is not disruptive. Her receptive language is stronger than her receptive language skills. I have suspected that she has dyslexia or learning disability because she still did not master all phonics at almost 7 (1st grade). She was introduced phonics since age 3 at a really strong preschool. I am not sure if it is her ADHD or learning disability or dyslexia or sensory (provisional autism) affect her focus at school. They describe her sometimes playing with hair, wiggling, playing with her clothing, looking around at classroom learning. She has mentioned to me that she forgot what she wanted to ask or forgot what the teacher say. I would send message to her case manager to ask question to follow up. May I ask how young can a kid do learning disability evaluation? We were told that she was too young to do it at age 5 last time we asked. [/quote] Even if she's not disruptive, if she's not focusing enough to learn, it's a problem. And it will only get bigger as she falls farther behind and, perhaps, learns to dislike school and/or think of herself as stupid. My DD has ADHD, autism, and dyslexia. We started ADHD meds in 2nd grade and she went from not reading CVC words to reading simple chapter books. Your child deserves all the support you can provide to learn.[/quote]
