Most children with dyslexia have some working memory issues and difficulty,
pulling/putting together sounds. I strongly suggest a specific program such as
Wilson or Orton-Gillingham, there are many which break things down bit by bit.
I am a special educator and have been working with children with dyslexia for a
number of years and have 2 children with a dianosis of dyslexia. Many of these
kids have amazing coping systems and have memorized and hidden their disability
and then it sort of backfires on them when they get a bit older and have to
read longer and more complex material.
