Reading
- I read slowly.
- When I read aloud, I skip words and/or re-read lines.
- I substitute, leave out, add, or mix up letters or parts of words.
- I lose my place on a page.
- I avoid reading out loud if I can.
- I read words or parts of words backwards: e.g. was for saw, net for ten.
- When I read silently, I re-read or read very slowly.
- I have a hard time "sounding out" words.
- I guess a lot when I read.
- I read in a kind of jerky, uneven way.
- I find it hard to draw conclusions or "read between the lines."
