My son is seven years old. He is in second grade. He had been
diagnosed with ADHD. His printing is at a preschool level. Very
unreadable. He also has numerous letter and number reversals. I have
asked numerous times for the school to test him for disgraphia and
dislexia. I was told that because he is reading at a fifth grade level
and in the gifted and talented program that they highly doubt that he
has a learning disability. I can't even get him tested. What can I do?
What are the criteria for these particuliar learning disabilities?
What can I do to help him?
Thank you for your help.
Sincerely,
Beth
