[quote=Anonymous]My son was similar and he has finally ended up in occupational therapy for it in 3rd grade. However, he had a great kindergarten teacher who really made the kids practice printing for 20 minutes a day. During that time, he had legible writing. I supplemented with Handwriting without Tears at home. If I had kept at it consistently, it likely would have worked better. It's local, and fairly cheap, if you want to try it out. My son's writing is better when he uses the 3 line paper, which I think is standard in kindergarten. There are triangular pencil grips you can buy, too, which can help depending on what his hands are doing. http://www.amazon.com/Classics-Triangle-Pencil-1-75-Inch-TPG-16212/dp/B00FQQRRIQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1456363962&sr=8-1&keywords=triangular+pencil+grip [/quote]
