[quote=Anonymous]Don't push her to read at the level she should be at to try to bring her up to speed or accelerate her. Keep her reading at the level that's most comfortable for her. If she can only comfortably read at a 1st grade level, that's fine. Keep her mostly reading there and slowly introduce 2nd grade level books. Find all the vocabulary games you can that are age appropriate and play as a family. Make it fun and trust me, it will help. One thing that helped my ADHD kid with a below-grade reading level was a tablet for reading. He got embarrassed that he wasn't reading the same types of books as his peers and the tablet with kindle app really helped. he was also embarassed checking out "kiddie" books at the library but was able to use the Libby app on his tablet to check out all the books he wanted at his comfortable reading level.
