DS5.3 is EXACTLY the same like your DS! He just finished first trimester of Kindergarten and we're pulling him out to homeschool. He seems to be doing a lot better with me one on one than in class. I did ask his teacher to watch for signs of dyslexia and I'm still going to the parent conference on Tuesday to find out what she has to say (the school doesn't know yet that we're pulling him out). Even his first report card (Common Core Standards based grading) suggests that there may be signs of dyslexia. We have been suspicious of this for quite awhile now. Other things come super easy to him but reading and even writing is a whole another world.
