What can the school do to help my child?

Your child’s teachers and other school professionals will want to identify the specific skills your child already has and those she needs to master in developmental sequence, e.g., hearing differences in sounds, learning letter names, spelling words that don't follow the rules, etc. This will allow you and the teacher to plan the next steps of your child's instructional program by building on what she already knows.

What can I do to help my child?

Depending on your child’s age and language skills, speak with them about the difficulties you've observed.

Ask them how they feel about school and what they feel they need help with.
Tell them you know they try hard, but you and their teachers are going to help them find ways to succeed.
Work in collaboration with school staff; let your child see you functioning as a team.
Look into private tutoring through community agencies or privately if you can afford it.
Encourage them to use their strengths and talents.
Be patient with them and support their efforts.
