[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does it mean? Honestly. I’ve been trying to teach him since before he started K. Now at 10 he still struggles. It takes him about 5-10 times to freakin’ tie his shoe. I wish I was kidding.[b] He plays soccer and basketball and baseball. It isn’t for a lack of dexterity. [/b]Why the heck can’t he grasp tying his shoe? What could this be so I can get him properly assessed, if needed.[/quote] Well, soccer, basketball, and baseball are all gross motor activities. Tying shoes is fine motor. How is his handwriting? Coloring and drawing? Building with teeny tiny LEGO? Occupational therapists (OTs) evaluate fine motor skills.[/quote]
