[quote=Anonymous]Just a PSA: my kid was just diagnosed with dyslexia. At the suggestion of someone here, I am reading Overcoming Dyslexia. If I had read this a year ago, I could have diagnosed my kid immediately. She tested as “on grade level” or “above grade level” for reading on standardized tests, but, when reading out loud, she often replaced words with words that were phonologically different but had a similar meaning. For example, she would read “Larla broke her arm” as “Larla broke her hand.” I thought she was just rushing, but now I see how this is a sign of dyslexia. Anyway, I suggest chapter 10 of this book—it clarified a lot. [/quote]
