I agree with DeeDee that handwriting is only part of it. My DD9 has dyslexia with very mild dysgraphia. For her, facing a day of written work at school is, in her own words, "like trying to drive up a steep hill on my little brother's tricycle." Her handwriting might be legible, but it takes every ounce of her brainpower and concentration to do it. There is nothing left over for her imagination and creativity. She leaves out any 'decorative' words and uses simple sentences that lack description and detail. Sure, she can do the work... eventually. It takes her three times as long as the other kids. But, it is nowhere NEAR reflective of her imagination and abilities. As a parent, I would go to the floor to protect my child's accomodations. I have seen what this 'mild' disability has done to her self-esteem. We will never go back there again!
What accomodations does you son have now? Are they suggesting to remove all of them or just revamp the IEP?
