[QUOTE="aeroeng, post: 391472, member: 6557"] M should get her tested. Without a diagnoses the school is not required to provide any kinds of accommodation. With it they are. This includes the tutoring support and excusing from the state required test. Dyslexia means someone of normal intelligence or above normal that has trouble learning to read in a traditional environment. There are as many different reasons to have trouble learning to read as there are dyslexic individuals. And, yes some of them can spell very well. Most kids have some troubles learning how to read, the label only gets attached with the difficulties impact other areas and/or interfere with the education process in general. Many school systems don't even recognize the term Dyslexia using terms like Learning Disabled instead. It does not mater what they call it, as long as proper training and accommodations are provided. You won't get ether without the testing. One really good source for information regarding reading issues is the International Dyslexic Association ([url]http://www.interdys.org/[/url]). [/QUOTE]
