[QUOTE="Malika, post: 554728, member: 11227"] Thanks, Buddy. What a shame you are not round the corner for us to come and have consultations with you :) And thanks for the ideas - J is learning to read in French, of course - I am leaving English well alone for the moment! On the advice of J's child psychiatrist, I am teaching him to read, and with the old-fashioned syllabic method... which is rather boring but seems effective. I feel there is probably no way round this hard graft stage of reading. He himself is beginning to spot letters... yesterday he pointed out the OU and the S of the "Soupes" written on the microwave... crazy how proud and gratified that made me feel!! No pressure, no stress, keeping it light but I think if we don't get the alphabet acquisition sooner or later, he will NEVER get it and will struggle and struggle. [/QUOTE]
