[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Once my kid got to OG-3, the focus switched to less direct dyslexia 'tutoring' and more on the reading comprehension and writing/output. [/b]But my kid does now fairly ok with spelling and is getting more used to spell check and some speech to text (but s-t-t is a little slow going, we keep being told it often takes til HS for kids to embrace using it, but how knows). Kid did Lindamood Bell intensive over a summer a while ago which was enormously helpful in both reading acquisition and fluency. While it's 'different' it's still fundamentally multisensory reading and teachers/tutors who did OG felt it had clearly been instrumental in getting kid reading and based on the same things that it wasn't in any way conflicting and totally complementary. BTW - I have dyslexia and am a self sufficient adult with a professional job. There's such a wide scope of dyslexia and its impacts, my kid's is more significant than mine is/was - and kid also has dysgraphia and ADD issues which compound learning... Think the biggest things are keeping kid engaged and also confident that they are capable.[/quote] Thanks - this is what we are hoping to get by "finishing" OG. [/quote]
