[quote=Anonymous]You want her full remediation program to be done before third grade begins. If fully remediated by third grade, dyslexic kids then often develop typically/keep up. If remediation is done after third grade the gap between their development and peers’ is likely to persist into adulthood. The time to act for a kid you know is dyslexic is NOW. For a kid who is simply picking up reading a little more slowly than others in 1st, sure, some at home work may be appropriate. Not a dyslexic kid. Plan for 1 hour 3 times a week for a year and a half. I’d see if you can figure out how to get that provided during the aftercare time. Is it a private after care? Can a tutor go in? Evening is not at all ideal for a little kid. How about before school? Drop any activities that don’t bring kid energy and joy (aside from dyslexia remediation, which will not bring joy in short term).[/quote]
