Looking Back
This is a photo of my oldest son at about the time I started this blog.
He was reading, but not comprehending. At the time, I didn't put recognizable photos of him in the blog to protect his privacy.
He's an adult now. Reading comprehension is still a challenge.
He has struggled through countless textbooks. He breaks them down into pieces, no magic strategies, but lots of well practiced ones. He has managed to keep the information in his head long enough to pass his tests.
Just like in the past, he still enjoys joke books and (rhyming) poems.
Some thoughts from this time about that time.
1 Keep finding reading about topics your kid loves
2 Try to think of any interest in reading as success
3 Demand help from your kid's school
It's been years since I posted, but I pay a little each month to keep this blog available as a resource for anyone who might find it useful.
Enjoy the journey!
