His recommendations are:
1. A 504 education plan that offers extra work time for classroom examinations & standardized tests;
2. The opportunity to use a keyboard when possible for written assignments;
3. Using learning strategies of visualization, conceptual analysis, practical examples, & general understanding to integrate information;
4. (synopsis) Make sure she learns to organize her work & does not procrastinate. Because of her slow work speed,the further she gets behind the harder it will be for her to show her full potential.
Hi Ginger,
Congrats to you for pursuing this-- I'm sure it will be helpful to your DD to know what she's dealing with.
I'm surprised that the recommendations don't include direct remediation of the dyslexia and the disorder of written expression. Both of these can improve considerably with targeted therapies, and you might want both in-school and private help with them.
