[quote=Anonymous]I agree that poor spelling, alone, doesn’t necessarily mean dyslexia. For what it’s worth, I had suspected my kid was dyslexic since around age 4… but you don’t really know at that age. Anyway, I formally requested that her APS school test her last year in 3rd grade. They did, and found her to be dyslexic (they can’t diagnose dyslexia officially, but “a specific learning disability consistent with…” etc.). So sometimes the free school evaluation can be helpful. She’s been getting extra help at school, but I also have/will continue to work with her at home. The cueing method in K followed by virtual 1st grade really did not help. She has made tremendous progress in reading… but yeah, the spelling, we are still working on that. [/quote]
