[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son (8) is like this as well. Dysgraphia can be tricky to diagnose but he does seem to have it--psychologist seems to think so. He definitely has ADHD. One thing I do to help is to break the process into steps with him. If he has a question, he answers verbally to me, I write it down and then he copies what I have written. This way he gets to share his real ideas and practice fine motor/handwriting but the fine motor delays and attentional issues don't impede the development of his ideas. This is imperfect but otherwise his output was so minimal that his teachers have always agreed to this system. Also, he is learning to use the keyboard and will be allowed to use it for work in the future.[/quote] Thanks, PP. How did you get the teachers to agree to him using the keyboard instead of writing?[/quote]
