For any of the kids having problems with remembering, the teacher writes all instructions on the board, so they can read them. But DD is having so much trouble reading. She's on reading level 2, when she should be on 25... I think she might have visual issues too, but I really don't know enough about it.
She could read 'then' in a book 8 times, then on the 9th time (all sentences startin with the same words) she'll say something completely different, which makes me think she's working from memory & the pictures ONLY. Guesses don't start with the same letter...
We were given new home work to do last week. I say a word & DD writes it. Spelling doesn't matter at all, they just want to see if the kids can guess the basic sounds of the words. Eg - I said truck. You'd expect tuk, truk, chruk... etc, anything along those lines. DD came up with nothing remotely close. bmkrf or something similar (I'd look, but its at school).
so much like you dd clover
struggling with reading here big time- level 6-9 should be at level 25- and that is with intervention
that is what the aid is working on with him his sounds!
it is only now in grade three that he is starting to get the sounds but still mixes up heaps such as b and d
working memory issues make it so hard for them- they get in trouble but cant remember what they did in the first place!
let alone what activity they are suppose to be doing in class!!
our kids sound soo similiar
