Does anyone remember how it feels like to not be able to read?

Question

The kindergarden years..i sorta remember it..it all just looked like scribbles..

Answer 1

I remember it's kind of cool....I do remember it was just a page of what can I say? ummmm I guess you can say patterns?

Answer 2

If you're asking for yourself, you should try to earn another language, or even try reading music. It's kinda similiar.

I was somewhat of a prodigy during those years, so learning to read came very quickly for me. But, once I took a look at Spanish or Japanese for the first time - it was super weird. Looks like scribbles.

Reading music is the same way. Looks like dots, holes, circles, scribbles.

Answer 3

I've been able to read since I was 3. I don't really remember not being about to. However, I have a sequencing problem (like dyslexia) and i've learned that a certain jumble of letters is a certain word, even when it doesn't look like it should be. Letters aren't that bad, but numbers, whew!

I learn other languages pretty quick, and I like decryting the jumble so I have no negative emotions with this scenario. BUT I have worked with kids who are having trouble learning to read, its scary, embarrassing, sad and frustrating for them.

Answer 4

No, I don't really remember these times, but if you learn a new language this would be sort of the same kind of feeling.

Answer 5

No..I Started Reading Very, Very, Very, Young

Answer 6

Yeah, just look at something in a foreign language - especially an Asian language where you won't even recognize any characters.

Answer 7

I was reading in kindergarten. I learned how to read before I started school.

Answer 8

Why? It came naturally to me.
