My DS is the oppposite. Very very high comprehension - lower decoding especially relative to his comprehension. We have a situation where the books he could read were completely insipid for him. Things are evening out now with his decoding ability getting somewhat more in lie with his interest and comprehension level. But there is still a big gap. It has been a great source of frustration. I am wondering if reading aloud to a child a lot helps comprehension becasue we are always reading (still do) reading books to DS way, way above-level. So basically he physcially reads every day, and every night we read to him and we discuss a book that is well-above his level.
