My 10-year-old son was just diagnosed with dysgraphia. We'll be doing occupational therapy and vision therapy as he also has a convergence insufficiency.

The dysgraphia has not caused any major problems up to this point. He's been compensating for it quite nicely. I have always just figured him to be a lazy writer (poor kid). He's a straight-A student who's never struggled at school. However, he's in 4th grade, and this is when they start to write a lot more. I want to have accommodations in place for him before he reaches middle school.

So... I'm going to be having a 504 meeting at school, and I need to know what to ask for! I'm not anticipating any problems with the school. I have good relationships with all the administrators. But, I don't want to miss anything important. What would you recommend?
