[quote=Anonymous]My 4th grader DD is always rushing through her academic work, whether it's math, reading, writing, or art. Her handwriting, most of the time, is illegible (sometimes the teacher had her resubmit her work). Her school work is messy and her latest MAP score is much lower than last year (most likely because she completed 40 questions in less than 15 mins!). She's not a competitive person by nature (doesn't care if she wins a game or not) so I'm not sure why she is rushing through her work. At home, I gave many reminders to write down her thinking process and check her work (which she interprets as "putting a checkmark next to each question"). Any suggestions on how to help her slow down and do her work more neatly? PS: DD has ASD, hyperlaxia, receptive and expressive language issues. [/quote]
