And I love the idea of Levar as a history lesson. Readersguide, thanks so much for your input. I didn't mean to imply they weren't going to test her, only that some of us who know her aren't sure that the label makes sense. They will go ahead with the testing. In the meantime, we're trying to think of things to help her. And anonymous, yes, we have and they are among the best computer programs we've tried. Both the Dr. Seuss and Arthur games I mentioned are Living Books.Harriethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05180730302829554796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2430112182493224146.post-86794576787997642492007-02-27T12:59:00.000-08:002007-02-27T12:59:00.000-08:00Have you tried any of the "Living Books" for the c...Have you tried any of the "Living Books" for the computer yet?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2430112182493224146.post-71632775442156045962007-02-22T13:05:00.000-08:002007-02-22T13:05:00.000-08:00You know, it really could be that she has some kin...You know, it really could be that she has some kind of learning disability, because this whole thing sounds an awful lot like M. What we did with M was a lot lot lot of reading -- Little Bear, Fluffy the Hamster, the Bob books are good for early early readers. But I'd really recomment getting her assessed. What you'll end up doing if she's got a disability is the same anyway -- lots and lots and lots of reading practice -- but she'll probably feel a whole lot better knowing that there's a reason that reading is hard for her, and that reason is <I>not</I> that she's the stupidest person on the planet. (Plus, the assessment is actually fascinating. Get it done by someone good, though, even if it means paying for it. And it's not cheap.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2430112182493224146.post-6928418839763165932007-02-21T12:21:00.000-08:002007-02-21T12:21:00.000-08:00Reading Rainbow, Reading Rainbow, Reading Rainbow ...<I>Reading Rainbow, Reading Rainbow, Reading Rainbow</I> - but watched WITH the child, with plenty of snuggling on the side.<BR/><BR/>Remember to make Levar's changing hairstyles and sweaters into a history lesson!lemminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06767103318863906140noreply@blogger.com
