NEURODIVERSITY:
​Every person, whether dyslexic or not, is different and unique.  But because dyslexia stems from a common phonological difference we can find children with similar characteristics and catch their reading issues early.  It is a spectrum disorder from mild to severe.  There are screenings that are being done prior to Kindergarten, and we know how to predict dyslexia by age 4 with 90% accuracy.  Please don't wait to get help if you think your child is not performing as well as they should be in school.  Most of the time it is not "developmental" since reading is not a naturally developing skill, nor will they "catch up" later as they mature.  *Research shows early intervention is key and without it they actually fall further behind. That is just not fair!

Summary here from above article...
"As knowledge of dyslexia and related difficulties has increased, not only in readers of English but also other languages (Caravolas, 2005), there remains a pressing need for theory to influence practice.  This paper has attempted to demonstrate how an understanding of dyslexia can be used to ensure that children in our school systems who are at risk of dyslexia can be identified early before a sense of failure sets in.  The emphasis has been on dyslexia as a dimensional disorder rather than a discrete diagnostic category.  Finally, evidence showing that children with dyslexic difficulties can be helped by specific interventions underlines the need for timely action rather than waiting for diagnosis."
