Thanks!
Syoblrig -- Are you saying that your son could recognize all individual letters and their sounds, even though he couldn't string them together? That seems to be where my son's at.
What does the testing consist of?
Yes, he knew all his letters and letter sounds by 2 1/2, plus numbers to probably 100. But he couldn't write at all. He could barely scribble his name when he started K. And the thing is, he was very motivated-- he actively tried to learn to read. But by the time K started, he was already feeling somewhat defeated.
For testing, he had the WISC, the WJ III achievement, something called TOWRE (I think) and a couple other short phonics tests. He also had to write a paragraph for the tester.
