[quote=Anonymous]Louis Morton is a great example https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2023/12/19/milloy-goodbye-strivers-survivors-of-dc/ The answer is that most poor dyslexic kids don't ever become competent readers. And by the way, most parents don't even find out their kids are dyslexic, because even if their kid is in pull-out for reading, the teachers don't call it dyslexia. Poor kids who read less well than other kids just believe they are stupid. I second the other parents who say they wish all schools would teach reading in a way that explicitly teaches the mechanics of reading. I also wish the schools would do more on parts of speech... my 6th grader with dyslexia has great trouble with figuring out words' meaning from context, and part of that is the ignorance of parts of speech.[/quote]
