[quote=Anonymous]Op: She was not really an early reader. She could not read in preschool. At the first preK parent-teacher conference last fall, I went in really worried about behavior, her ability to focus, and social skills. Her teacher said she thought she was very bright. I had taught her letter sounds for speech therapy just before school started, so I chalked the comment up to that. But her teacher also brought up dyslexia of all things! I will say this preK do a great job of teaching all letter sounds and some digraphs. But she still picked up reading fast. She can read anything now. She’s been into this pillow globe recently and somehow knows how to pronounce these obscure country names. I’m not sure learning to read at four is hyperlexic? “Guard” came up today after school (guardians of the galaxy). No problem. I’m just like how?! I barely remember there is a u in guard. I think if she’s seen the word she knows it. But otherwise memory is completely normal. She’s actually not very good at any of those memory games. But maybe we should try those games again. Her focus has improved so much in a year. [/quote]
