Here is the same data with a few extra details. Here are the things I notice:
- Those with the greatest gains, started with a reading age of 8 or so
- One of the girls made a 2 year gain in one week. I would assume that her spelling age is now well behind her reading age.
- Of the three with the smallest gains, one has English as an additional language and a head injury, one is very new to the English language, but the other has simply not made much progress.
- All but two are continuing with TRT sessions.
I’ve arranged this table by gains, high to low.
