[quote=Anonymous]OUr DD always loved books (being read to and pretending to read), she could rhyme because her vocabulary was really large and she new lots of words that went together in songs (we played lots of rhyming song games).  She had a great memory so she could “read” books by retelling the story from memory based on the pictures.  We didn't really notice that some of the words didn’t match. She could also tell you the sounds the letters made that she memorized from a book. I share these examples because we took them as signs she was well-prepared to learn to read when she reached school.

PK4 Montessori teacher noted that she didn’t want to do her letter work and that she didn’t put forth her best effort during that work when she did it.

K teacher said that reading just hadn’t clicked and that if she would just try she would get it since she was so bright in the other subjects. Meanwhile she was crying for hours each night as she tried to do her reading homework. DD cried herself to sleep many nights saying she was stupid.

Summer after K did intensive reading tutoring OG style to make up for any instructional deficits but realized we needed an assessment.

1 did assessment found dyslexia and adhd and started interventions.
