How to Spot Early Signs of Reading Problem in Children?

If your child is having trouble reading words and writing in kindergarten and first grade, it may just mean reading hasn’t “clicked” yet. But early intervention is essential to helping a child who may be having reading problems, such as dyslexia. If you see some of these signs, contact your child’s teacher or pediatrician.

Your child may have a reading problem if she exhibits some of the following signs.

By kindergarten: Has trouble remembering names and sounds of letters Has difficulty rhyming Is slow to learn new words By 1st and 2nd grades: Is unable to blend sounds together to say words Continues to reverse letters–such as writing "d" for "b" or "u" for "n"

• Reverses words, such as "nap" for "pan"
• Is reluctant to read, or read aloud
• Is falling way behind her classmates

By 3rd grade: Withdraws Says she doesn’t like school Continues to have trouble reading Displays behavioral problems Has trouble sitting still and paying attention Keep in mind that many children reverse words, especially before the age of 7. But if you see a number of these signs in your grade-schooler and particularly if you have a history of dyslexia in your family try to have your child evaluated sooner rather than later.
