[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 248029, member: 1550"] My youngest daughter has a reading and spelling Learning Disability (LD), and this impedes all her classes because you always need to read. She is doing better. Her Learning Disability (LD) was severe enough that she needed to be in Learning Disability (LD) class for both reading and math until sixth grade. You may want to consider a class where your child can get more help so that he can catch up. My daughter also had trouble putting sounds together--it was a big problem for her. She's in 7th grade and while she'll never like to read long chapter books, she at least can read well enough to do her other classes. Her spelling will never be stellar, but it's MUCH improved. But she got a lot of one-on-one help. That was mandated in her IEP. However, you can't get the kind of help she got in a mainstream classroom. The teacher simply has too many kids to focus on helping just your son. That's why we let daughter go into Learning Disability (LD) for two classes. Her cirriculum was different than for the mainstream kids. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
