So along with Javin's Autism diagnosis, he was also diagnosed as having Hyperlexia. Hyperlexia is a precocious ability to read words, far beyond what would be expected at an early age and /or a
fascination with letters or numbers. Javin has had an obsession with letters since he was a year old and at about a year and a half he knew he alphabet. Well now we have realized that Javin can spell and read!! Wow! Only 3 years old and a reading machine!! As far as I know these are the words that he can spell and read:
CAR PLANE TRAIN COW DOG CAT SHEEP ANT FROG BUG (His favortite word!!) BEAR DRUM HORN GUITAR (I know, right?? Crazy!) TUBA BOOK DUCK JAVIN TENT SLIDE PIG SHIP TREE BOAT BED BIRD HORSE BUS CAKE BEE
So 30 words as far as I know...pretty darn good! Sorry just needed a brag moment!!!
Just added: WATER
