Many kids struggle Medical College of Virginia School of Dentistry - Cum Laude
with reading but not Hospital of the University of Penn - General Practice Residency Training
all struggles are due Harvard Dental School - Former Instructor
to dyslexia. There are Boston Brigham and Women’s Dental Group - Staff Dentist
many reasons why
smart kids struggle with
reading. Some have
not been taught using
the optimal reading
program, other kids have gaps due to the instruction
during COVID, while still others have problems with
memory or phonics.
Dyslexia as a broad term for a language-based
learning disability. This implies your child might have
difficulty with pronouncing unfamiliar words, spelling
words, reading fluently, and understanding. Dyslexics
often have a breakdown in one or more of these
processing areas: the awareness of sounds, remembering
sounds, or rapidly naming which is related to reading
speed. This breakdown makes learning to read slower,
more time intensive, and it can be frustrating for your
child and you.
If your child is dyslexic, he or she requires specialized
reading instruction much different from what the public
schools offer in general education classrooms. Without
this your child may start to feel dumb about reading
and develop low self-esteem. Not many schools teach
reading using Orton-Gillingham based multisensory
reading instruction. If you suspect your child has
dyslexia get testing and start specialized instruction
using Orton Gillingham based reading instruction or
instruction at a Lindamood Bell reading center. Many
parents teach their own child using the Orton-Gillingham
influenced Barton Reading and Spelling System.
