[quote=Anonymous]I taught my kid with gross and fine motor issues, dysgraphia, autism and ADHD cursive at a young age, because we're French and over there cursive is taught before block in primary school. In his American public school he was just expected to stumble into whatever handwriting he could. We did handwriting practice starting when he was 4 and continued diligently until middle school, using French cursive workbooks I bought in France or on Amazon (they're called Graphilettre). Now as a young adult, he has a large, relatively unformed hand, and he writes slowly, but it's legible. My other kid with autism, but no ADHD or dysgraphia has always been excellent with fine motor skills and picked up cursive and block no problem. She preferentially uses cursive at school. [/quote]
