[quote=Anonymous]Ask the teacher how he compares to the other kids. The first part of this is having him learn to make the numbers with large motions, like writing in the air with his finger. Once he has learned what shape he is making, then have him do it on a large paper or chalkboard or whatever. Then you work on getting it smaller on paper, which turns it from gross motor to fine motor. Can he cut with scissors and do buttons? Those are fine motor skills. [/quote]
