[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone diagnosed dyslexia in a five year old who hasn't started kindergarten yet? That is incredibly concerning. I would hold off on pursuing tutoring or extra supports and instead see how your child does in kindergarten reading instruction. [/quote] This surprises me, too. I've been told that first grade is the earliest it makes sense to evaluate. I was concerned about my daughter's reading in kindergarten and part of first and she began getting pulled for reading intervention. I asked about an evaluation and they chose to wait - I'm glad they did. Reading "clicked" for her partway through first grade with the reading interventions. I'm glad I didn't get a private evaluation because she may have been misdiagnosed because it really was just too early to tell. [/quote]
