DD has always been a very solid reader. Even in Reception she was far ahead and has continually been a couple of years ahead despite sen.
In year 5 she had a reading age of 12.11. She was also externally assessed in relation to her sen in year 5 and again showed very high but discovered she was reading without any kind of phonics. I.e she knew what a word was because she had seen it previously but could not break new words up. She received help in relation to this.
Fast forward to 13.
She had a bad experience in regards to reading and it has put her off. She is not reading at all. I have tried everything to ignite her fire for reading. We have a house full of books, story cds, magazines etc, she liked David Walliams books but has even gone off those. Her reading age is now age 10. Please help!
