What happens to kids with dyslexia who are not reading at their ability level by the end of 3rd grade?
How does special education law address this issue?
A good meta-analysis of the research is in the paper:

Thanks Fran. All resources contribute to our knowledge. From my 18 years teaching experience all children become readers but those with developmental delays start reading 1 or two years later than their peers. In some cases early intervention prevents dyslexic children from struggling to learn phonics in elementary school but if a specific language disorder is present they need intensive programs in Reading for understanding vocabulary and grammar.
