[quote=Anonymous]I had a similar experience when DS was younger (now a 9th grader) and realized around 4th grade that we needed to separate the poor writing abilities from the thinking work. By all means keep working on the HW but on the meantime try allowing him to dictate his work into an iPad and then edit his translated work. We used dragon dictation which is a free ap. Dictating his written work will allow him to progress in his thinking and analyzing skills which can be easily held back by the writing. My son has an "encoding" issue. He reads and decodes well but struggles encoding his thoughts into writing. When he dictates, he sounds like a genius, relatively speaking. :)[/quote]
