[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a sped teacher. I also want to add that dyslexia is a complex reading disability and presents differently in each child. Some students have primarily spelling issues; others also have decoding and /or fluency deficits that then affect comprehension. Students with dyslexia don’t always present issues in k-1 and if they do and are given a successful intervention they can still then have additional issues arise as reading and writing tasks become more complex in later grades.[/quote] It seems like ELL kids would also continue to need support as the complexity of ELA assignments increases in later grades. I know that I was not writing essays as well as native speakers even after I was fluent in a second language at my international school. There are definitely German verb constructions that still baffle me. Does ESOL/ELL support stop at a particular fluency level?[/quote]
