Over on a Psychology Today blog, Robert Langston has a post about recognizing dyslexia early. He’s putting it through the filter of his own personal experience with dyslexia and the filter of a parent discussing a child’s problems with a teacher. Is dyslexia inherited? in the original.

this blog is really amazing!!! informative!! like to put forward a suggestion ,would u be kind enough to add more remedial measures which u can advice to children with LD??
I run a literacy program for students who need more serious intervention with their reading. Many of my students are suffer from dyslexia, but by the time the students have gone through a year of the program, they are fluent readers keeping up with their classmates. The focus of the program is on helping students master phonological automaticity through many linguistic activities. The program is based out of California. I also write a blog on language, reading, and writing development. http://lakeside-learning.blogspot.com/
I refer parents to your site all the time for further reading. Thanks for getting the messages out.
Thanks for the comments folks.
@Indu: I’m glad to post notes about remedial procedures as I get time to do so. Please note that I’ll limit those that I advocate to procedures that have been documented as effective. Meanwhile, please take a tour of Teach Effectively to see some posts about effective procedures.
@Scott: It’s great that your able to offer successful remediation. Getting students back to the level of their peers in one year is quite a feat! I look forward to reviewing your blog and Web site.
I am a specialist dyslexia teacher and trainer. I have written some accesible articles for parents about how to help a child with reading and spelling. Subscribers receive free games that develop children’s fluent reading of common words and phonic awareness.
I recommend it for parents who want to further their child’s progress in these areas.
The address of the website that I invited you to visit is http://www.readingwithouttears.com
I have a blog there and would love to hear from anyone interested in making a diference to children’s learning.
