[quote=Anonymous]DD was diagnosed late in ES. She was at a Catholic K8 school that taught reading the old fashion way - no Lucy C. They also had some additional reading supports and provided feedback on how we could work with DC. We worked with her everyday. We would have hired an OG tutor but they were hard to come by- no one in our area was available and then Covid hit. Thankfully, her dyslexia was more mild, and like many of these DC she had a high IQ. The other major factor that played into her success was her friend group. They are all veracious readers. Now in HS, they all still read ~ 1 book a month. It may sounds silly, but I do believe the love of reading in her peer group was very influential. Another thing we did early on was join a program at a local pet shelter. She read out loud to cats. She now reads aloud at children’s Mass to grow her confidence in public reading. [/quote]
