[quote=Anonymous] I agree with the need for an OT evaluation to rule out any motor skill issues but if that comes back fine, make sure he actually knows how to form the letters correctly. My oldest child learned rather haphazardly and it took a long time to finesse her writing. She actually never felt comfortable with printing and only enjoyed handwriting once she started cursive in grade 2. My younger child attended a school where they actually taught proper letter formation ( when to pick up and put down the pencil lead, where to start each letter in the correct direction to move in forming it) in pre-K and it made all the difference in her handwriting right from the start.
