I am a teacher who has a primary age son that I suspect has dyslexia. His teachers have never raised this with me but, in my studies, I am recognising symptoms of dsylexia in my son. For example, he is considered "good" at maths, but struggles hugely to remember his multiplication tables. He also cannot remember, or follow, a 2/3 step instruction and his organisational skills frustrate him and me alike! When he reads aloud, he often mis-reads the building block words but can still get the general gist of the text. Until recently, he has claimed to hate reading but since moving to 'real' books, he is developing more of an interest. He is talented at sport and is also very good at construction tasks. I am very proud of him.
