[quote=Anonymous]To OP', I am a new poster. But I would encourage you to do some outside tutoring if you can afford it, even if you end up taking him to school later in the morning because of it. School supports usually are not intensive enough. Intensive support is usually very important for dyslexia due to working memory issues in dyslexic kids ---with more contact with the material per week, the children are more likely to retain what they learn. Schools try to do the minimum to get your child by, due to budget constraints. That support usually is just not intensive enough. For the school, they want your child to finish elementary school successfully (definition of "success" may vary). For your child, it is better if they are as good of a reader as soon as possible. Your child's peers are already learning a lot through reading, content that your child will likely be missing. [/quote]
