[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a teacher. This is true. Reversals/reading difficulty are the NORM before 2nd grade for MANY children....Also, "behind" in reading is not a term that I typically use because there is a HUGE window for learning how to read. Yes, there "may" be a problem...but do not worry now if professionals are telling you not to.[/quote] You are giving me the same advice that I received about my child. I didn't listen to it because both of my brothers and my father are dyslexic. The chances of us having a dyslexic child were very good. My child was frustrated by not being able to read. He has a high IQ across the board and his diffculty in reading when other kids around him were reading was becoming a problem. We waited until first grade because the teachers told us to wait, but I was waiting until second. The faster you intervene in an LD, the better off you are. Neuroplasticity is a thing and it's better to have a longer window for intervention. [/quote]
