[quote=Anonymous]I have a dyslexic 7th grader. He does really well in school for the most part and is honors classes but his reading speed sometimes presents an extra challenge. He was diagnosed in 2nd grade and he had 1:1 at school 3x a week plus private tutoring in OG 3x a week for two years. His math is fine but not exceptional. Very, very good at music and quite athletic. In 3rd and 4th grade he had teachers that did a lot of reading club. That was not possible for him to do on his own so we would do it together, taking turns reading pages and I would help him with words as needed. It definitely did help him despite the pain. I recommend audiobooks and ensuring that your kid has activities that they enjoy and excel at. It keeps their confidence up. [/quote]
