Here's another good website: www.macalester.edu/psychology/whathap/UBNRP/Dyslexia/types.htmlThe dyslexia subgroups can be understood as follows: * Surface : person can read words phonetically but has problems with whole word recognition (i.e. yacht ---> yatchet). * Phonological : person can read familiar words by using whole word method but has difficulty "sounding out" words that are new or letter-to-sound decoding problems. * Spelling : person can read individual letters that lead to reading words if given enough time but has problems recognizing the word as a whole and phonetically (i.e. men ---> h-e-n). * Direct : person can read aloud without comprehension that is similar to speech comprehension aphasias like anomia I would say my granddaughter is in both the surface and the phonoligical subgroups. |

thanks for posting this site. I have thought that my 8 year had some type of dyslexia but have not had her tested for it. she does reverse her b and d. and writes messy. i can not read her journals or even make out how she spells the words its like its her on little way of spelling. she reads really good though and like her weekly spelling words she makes 102. i guess because i make her write these words over and over for the week she remembers how to spell by friday. hopefully this year( she starts 3rd grade) i can talk to the school about some help. I still need to figure out who in the school deals with this.
