[quote=Anonymous]I suspected by the end of K that my older DS had problems but most of out focus was on his severe ADHD. We were discouraged from testing in 1st but I went ahead with private testing over the summer before second. He has severe dyslexia. In my own research I realized that DH has classic mild dyslexia. I talked to the folks who did the testing for older DS about concerns for my younger DS. They prefer testing after 6 because the battery of tests they can use increases. They did encourage me to go ahead with a lot of multisensory early instruction (letter sounds, word play, etc) even without testing. He's an early Oct baby and rising K this year, so I'm watching and waiting and communicating with the school. If he does not show progress we will pursue testing before the end of K. [/quote]
