[quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the severity of the dyslexia and how early kids get intensive, evidence-based intervention. Our DC had relatively mild dyslexia and was below grade-level in some reading skills in 3rd grade. After several years at a school serving kids with dyslexia, our now 8th grade DC “eye-reads” novels that are several hundred pages long for fun. I don’t think DC will ever read as quickly as neurotypical kids, but they read more deeply and remember more since they are going more slowly. Also as others have said, keep up with the audiobooks![/quote]
