Article: [senco-forum] b d confusion

If she confuses the sounds, then this could be an auditory processing  
problem and if she confuses them when writing, this can be an  indicator of visual 
processing problems. She may have both if she does both. I  would get to the 
source of the problem to find the best way to help her. If  she has pther 
processing issues she may need referral for APD and/or Irlen  syndrome/visual 
processing testing as these are 2 major causes of reading and/or  spelling issues, 
namely dyslexia. Processing problems are for life and need more  than a 
worksheet or games to sort out, even if the symptom can be sorted  that way.  



Best wishes,
