I visited DD3 7yo classroom during the schools open afternoon yesterday. I noticed while looking through her work that she puts letters in the wrong order or misses them out altogether. Also (and it was mentioned in her report) she gets b's and d's, p's and q's and 9's the wrong way around. She reads d's and b's the wrong way too. She hardly ever finishes a piece of work. She doesn't say words the wrong way and doesn't have trouble putting days of the week for example in the wrong order and she knows left from right. She is also good at telling time. She got 2's, 2C's and a 2B in her KS1 SATs.
I'm put off asking her teacher, because I suspected DD2 11yo with having it and they say she doesn't. I don't want to look like I'm just trying to label my kids.
My DH and my mum are both dyslexic.
