The only score that roughly measures phonics (from this eval) is pseudo word decoding, which while a relative weakness is far from a statistical one. I would remember that before age 8 reading skills are definitely on a continuum and it is really difficult to say if weaknesses will progress into a reading LD or if it is developmental and your DS will catch up. I would recommend a comprehensive vision exam to rule out vision issues. Some children that are far sighted hate to read aloud and once corrected are fine. My DD had average reading achievement and a very high VCI when tested at 7 (October B-day 1st grade). We noticed her squinting and found out she had a severe astigmatism, she starting wearing glasses and scored in the 140's in reading achievement a year later. It might be worth a look. For the record she passed her school screening with flying colors as most children do, even those with vision problems;).
