Deidra does NOT have dyslexia...

We had a meeting at Deidra's school today...Deidra DOES NOT have dyslexia. She has some characteristics that they will continue to monitor, but doesn't show enough of them to qualify as having dyslexia. We got some ideas on working on her reading fluency and memory. The testing lady told us she thought Deidra was very sweet and very smart and she really enjoyed getting to know her, but while Deidra is struggling with some things that they see in dyslexics...the testing showed that she tested a lot better in areas that dyslexics normally do very poorly on. So, they have us some ideas on how to improve her memory and to work on reading fluency with her.
