Abstract
The purpose of this study was to develop an accurate reading development profile of a 10-year-old boy diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia including his reading strengths and challenges. The profile was used to provide his teachers in the following grades with suggestions for meeting his needs in reading and content area subjects. The Filtering, Analyzing, and Diagnosing (FAD) reading difficulties model developed by Mokhtari, Niederhauser, Beschroner, and Edwards (2011) was used for collecting and analyzing data to identify and understand reading patterns. Data were collected from three sources: Home, School and Child and analyzed in three phases: Filtering, Analyzing, and Diagnosing. Results indicated the student's greatest challenge was in reading fluency and decoding words within passage context. Strengths included vocabulary and a desire to read fluently.
