Symptoms for Reading Disorder

  All Reading Disorders are different, two are not the same. They are many different symptoms and signs that your child might have a reading disorder. If you think your child has it or matches the symptoms you would want to get it checked out as soon as possible. If you ignore it and the older they get the window of opportunity to help them to deal with it will close and they won’t truly learn how to deal with it. One of the signs is if your child can’t say words properly at the age of two. If they are having difficulty saying syllables or single words that have a specific sound, also if they have difficulty with rhyming. Another sign is if they switch words or letters while reading and writing. If they also can’t determine the meaning of a simple sentence that can be a sign they might have a Reading Disorder. If you want the best for your child you should consider getting them checked out just in case. If your child does have a Reading Disorder the best things you can do is love and support your child. There is many ways you can help your child. One of the first things you must do is make sure the school knows they have a reading disorder so they can help and give them the attention that they deserve. It also helps if you practice with them. Trying to make them read out loud to you every night is another way you can help with their disorder. It also might not be a bad idea to get them a tutor for at home if you can’t help your child understand it. Putting this off and pretending it doesn’t exit will only hurt your child in the long run. The older they get the less likely they will be able to understand and deal with it. Get them help as soon as possible. This does not only affect their reading. It affects all their other subjects and their ability to understand them. It isn’t easy for a child to have a reading disorder of any kind they are going to have deal with it for rest of their lives.
