[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I would get an OT consult before trying to do this on your own. I am not sure copying will help. My son is 8 and also really struggles with writing. The OT had some great input on how to help with letter formation, what type of paper and pencils to use, how he should sit, and also how to reduce writing demands. He is in a private school so he does not have an IEP, but his school is very open to her ideas (e.g., he dictates his answers to a teacher aide on tests). Also, for some kids learning to type is really the best solution, and an OT would know about that, too. [/quote]
