DS1 is 7.5 and a vision therapy patient; he has been working on severe tracking issues...and when he was tested about halfway through VT, he was also found to have very poor form constancy and visual closure, and bottom-of-the-scale visual sequential memory, which turns out to make sight words very hard to learn. We have been working very, very hard on vision therapy and reading.
And he read his first whole book today (that is not a Bob book). He read Put Me In the Zoo. He did lose his place a couple times; he did substitute some words; and on a few pages he had trouble finding the text at all. But he read it, cover to cover.
I'm super proud of how hard he has worked to get to this point.

My ds is 7.5 too. It's such a great age.
