Very interesting. Begs the question though as to why, if it isn’t a problem to read the text jumbled up for normal people, would it be a problem to read normal text for a dyslexic?
I guess reading comprehension isn’t commutative…
I had my 2nd grade daughter attempt to read this as well. Guess what? She was almost perfect.
