[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kumon workbooks and dry erase cards. Practice. My son was barely writing in K, and in 1st grade so much better. We do practice some at home.[/quote] +1 to the Kumon books! We did two pages daily. It only takes a few minutes and they're fantastic. Easy enough for DS to work on by himself, and the small amount daily really seemed to help. Lots of positive reinforcement. Yes, other fine motor skill practice is also helpful, but repeated writing of the letters helps make it stick in your muscle memory. DS still sometimes gets sloppy when he's in a rush, but when he knows the handwriting needs to be legible (spelling tests), he seems to make the extra effort. [/quote]
