[quote=Anonymous]My kid struggled with reading before 2nd grade-at which point he was diagnosed with ADHD and stated doing some occupational therapy for it. He went from below grade level to on grade level. In 3rd grade he started meds and it made a huge difference and he now tests 90th percentile for reading and 99th for math (and has consistently 4th-6th grade.) He is a good reader now (though he still resents being made to read, he only wants to read on his terms) but still struggles a lot with writing. That’s the next battle we’re working on. He hates it, and knows he’s not good at it which makes him hate it even more. It’s really key to get the reading sorted now though-because there is so much more reading in all classes as they get to late elementary and middle school. Also, I feel like younger kids are less likely to tease. Is the tutoring everyday? I’d make sure he still gets friend time so he’s not completely missing out. [/quote]
