3 Different STAR Reading Tests, 3 Different Scores

This may not be what you want, but, take the attitude that he will grow of this need as he gets older? Kind of like potty training, they all do on their own schedule, but chances are he will not need to do this when in college.

And if he does? Well, I would put this in his IEP. Both for testing in the school as an accommodation, and for future state or college entry testing. I think it is great that his teacher realized that it is what he needed. Formalize it.

But, chances are, as his brain adapts to reading more and more, he will need the aloud time less and less. But if he doesn't that is fine. A teacher friend of mine was telling me how in college she was hired by the school to read the text book in an engineering class to a student. He could read a little, but not long paragraphs, but did fine while listening. He apparently had Pi memorized out to like 700 places. Yes this is different, but not a hindrance. The biggest problem may be other kids who don't understand and make fun of him.
