A few weeks ago we had Mclane tested for Dyslexia. I had been seeing some signs for a while and along with a mothers intuition we took him in and he tested positive for Dyslexia and ADD.
It has meant some changes for us but in a positive way.
Mclane had been feeling a little down like he was falling behind his class mates, and now feels much better about himself. We go to tutoring twice a week to help him learn a different method to reading and writing. I scanned some samples of his hand writing, he is learning cursive to help with letters and which way they go.
I had been nervous that this might make him more self conscious but it has been quite the opposite, after two weeks of tutoring he has been doing much better in school and received his first 100% on his spelling test!!
He has a great teacher who has done anything she can to help Mclane out, I got this note in his green tutoring folder and though I would share it!
