Spelling (AKA encoding) is connected to Dyslexia and can be part of not able to access the curriculum.   My child can not independently spell words near grade level.  This impacts his ability to do peer to peer review.  He struggles with completing written assignments in class such as writing a number sentence, explaining his thinking  or any independent writing.   He is self conscious that his spelling is so poor - so instead of writing a sentence with misspelled words, he will not write anything at all.   Next he will get feedback from classmates - you should have written a number sentence.       This is an example of not being able to access the curriculum and where my child should have adequate accommodations (to write sentences in math) and instruction for how to encode.[/quote]

Thank you. This is very helpful. The LSC didn't think there was suspicion of a disability requiring special education even though all of these are issues. DRA was at the end of year level mid-year, which didn't help. Nevermind that I'm sure the DRA would be much higher if the "reading" was actual decoding vs. memorization. The spelling is the most obviously presenting issue for now, though.[/quote]

I have in my child's goals language like ….. when reading an unfamiliar level _______ text …..
    or - read 12 out of 15 single-syllable nonsense words with digraphs, short vowels, welded sounds, and blends

With these types of goals, they can't fake it.[/quote]
