My Daughter Reverses Letters, Numbers...

"My daughter is almost 8 and in second grade. She will still write letters and numbers backwards, often when she is tired but not always. When she was younger, she was a mirror writer, from right to left with letters reversed. She also tends to read numbers backwards ie '521' is '125' to her. Is this related to her ADHD and lack of attention to detail or is it indicative of other learning disabilities?? Should I have her tested?" - PS in MN.
