[quote=Anonymous]And sometimes “ waiting for it to click ” as above poster states, just put kids ( specifically those with dyslexia) even more behind. It doesn’t just “ click” for them in 2nd grade or 3rd grade or whenever. They need specialized instructions tarting as early as possible. So retention won’t help them learn to read since public schools don’t provide the type of instruction that dyslexic children need. However, keeping them in 1st for another year at least doesn’t make the gap any larger with plummeting self esteem as the majority around them do learn to read. [/quote]
