I think I figured out the problem shes been having!! I believe I posted once about her eyesight being horrible (off the charts bad). She revealed to me once that she was unable to see for a long time and was too scared to tell me. I got a report that she broke down crying when she couldn't read the "E" at the school test in 2nd grade. I was thinking- what if that could have been the problem! Can not being able to see cause a problem like low scores? She had horrible double vision so I imagine reading must have been horrible for her, plus, I believe some of the years had manipulatives that measured there "Puzzle abilities." Only in 5th grade did she not have extreme growth between eye exams- and thats the time her scores started to perk up!!!!! I know this is a long shot, but it always could be the answer.
