As for keyboarding, DD is pretty slow and writing is faster. About a year ago, we tried typing instruction with an OT who specialized in 2e kids. It provoked major anxiety issues, particularly when the OT tried to get her to increase her speed. I encourage her to type whenever possible but right now, it's just another stressor. I've been trying to gauge whether it is time to do some low-key instruction again.
Those of you who are using an ipad. Which version do you have? I have an ipad2 and don't see a voice to text feature on the keyboard. Is this an ipad3 feature?
We have tried Dragon on the ipad but it doesn't seem to recognize DD's voice. We are talking maybe 50% recognition. It provides great entertainment value but so far is not a viable option for reducing her writing burden.
