[quote=Anonymous]I'm happy to see Fountas and Pinnell getting the grief it deserves. It sounds like your school is teaching a balanced literacy approach, which is a bad start. If your school offers reading support, I would ask for Orton-Gillingham instruction. This can include Wilson and Barton methods. They're not obligated to provide it because it's a private school. So if they don't, hire a private tutor to work with your child at least two days a week. Don't worry about dyslexia, at least not yet. The majority of kids who have difficulty reading are not dyslexic. They're just poorly taught. [/quote]
