He's fortunate to have teachers that understand that, if he's given more time, he can produce some pretty amazing stuff.

I've wondered off and on if he is dysgraphic, but I've never considered CAPD. Are there specific reasons you think that this score discrepancy would point towards that, or are there other aspects about your kid's personality that lead you to believe that?

I found this link to be pretty helpful: http://bitsofwisdomforall.com/the-frustrated-learner/


I was referring to the Comprehension subtest of the VCI [Similarities, Vocabulary, Information, Comprehension ... only the first two are factored into the FSIQ but the other two provide additional information/perspective].

As for CAPD, there are multiple other factors that point toward CAPD. Or it could be ADHD. Or both. Or just a kid with a helluva lot of OEs ... laugh

I'll check out the link! Thanks smile
