The Inside Scoop: Community Forum
Inquiring minds want to know!

Welcome to YCDC's "Inside Scoop", a place where you can gain insights from others in the dyslexia community and share your experiences. Tell us about what reading programs worked for you, your child, or your students. Pose a question to the community; tell us about schools using thoughtful and effective methods for supporting dyslexic students; tell us about places and programs that might be overrated. We hope that postings will be constructive and helpful to others. We reserve the right to remove material. We will not post contact information, but ask that you leave your email address. The Center may wish to follow up to learn more.

Our school uses the DRA; I don't see how the DRA could be used as an assessment of dyslexia. It could, however, provide a clue that a child is dyslexic - e.g., the DRA measures a few things - comprehension and decoding among them. It would stand to reason that if a child has trouble decoding, he or she may be dyslexic.
