Elaine,
I've been scratching my head wondering about this child since reading Sue's
reply. I wonder if there are some other speech/hearing challenges, too. When I
was in first grade my teacher was concerned about how I was reading. Turns out
I had lost 99% of my hearing in one ear, and 80% of the other ear. I had
surgery done at Duke, and WOW! the world opened up for me. (I still suffer some
hearing loss, especially if I have a cold or my allergies act up).

Do you think it's possible that when he's reading aloud, he's so
focused on how he sounds that he isn't thinking about what he's
reading? . . .

How children learn is as important as what they learn: process and content go
