[quote=Anonymous] Isn't this a red flag for something else, such as ADHD or dyslexia? I thought dysgraphia was a motor disability that makes writing laborious and slow, not an attention or visual recognition issue. My son has dysgraphia, extremely slow processing speed and severe ADHD. He has always been an excellent speller (no punctuation problems either). However despite years of handwriting and typing training, his writing is atrocious, his typing slow, and it's all quite fatiguing. I'm wondering whether there are different types of dysgraphia? Or whether your child also has concurrent dyslexia? Or...? Note that MCPS, for some scandalous reason, does not recognize or test for dyslexia (the most common learning disability in children!), so if your child was tested by the school, they could have passed over that.
