[quote=Anonymous]I have a DD in the same grade as yours that is probably stealth dyslexic too. I say probably, because I don't think that's a real diagnosis among many professionals--ours didn't mention it, but I've been aware of it. I wanted to reccomend a thorough look at vision--specifically visual motor skills and visual perception skills. We found such glaring hole in DDs visual perception skills. it's as if she's completely blind in this one specific way to perceive the world (otherwise her visual perception is in the superior range). It obviously affects reading. And she looks dyslexic because she cannot properly orient letters or remember spelling or sound out words. But she will never get a dyslexia diagnosis because she reads extremely well. Also, it's my understanding dyslexia has little to do with vision. [/quote]
