DS13 (CAPD, dyslexia) started liking school more in grade 7, so it may get better for your kids too. He has an FM system (head phones for him, a microphone for the teacher) that keeps him focussed on what the teacher is saying in his lower interest classes like math. It really helps, although he is the only one in the class that needs it. You may want to consider an FM system depending on how severe your child's CAPD is. Our Ministry of Education funds FM systems for children who need them, so maybe Nova Scotia will too.
Ginder, thanks for the links to the Mississippi Dyslexia material. It's a really good summary and I will pass it on to some people at our school board.
