Original poster back after a few years with an additional question.
Can a child with the WISC scores above have dysgraphia? At same time as that IQ testing the brief writing skills score from WJIII was 86 (that was score not percentile). It was noted in reports he had poor fine motor skills and poor writing skills but due to the project based nature of the school of his current school he never had to do much writing. It was suggested in reports to follow up with OT and allow more time for writing tasks. At this time the behaviors were more of the focus so this area was overlooked.
Child has now entered 6th grade at an academic charter school and we find he is struggling with all writing tasks. Upppercase and lowercase letters are mixed. Spelling is inconsistent and poor. Poor spacing with writing. Following margins and writing on lines is impossible. Pencil grasp is wrong and writing seems exhausting and painful. Is this just because he lacks experience in writing or could this be dysgraphia? From what I have researched usually low processing scores are seen with dysgraphia not high ones. Child is able to type but still struggles with generating ideas and correct syntax and grammar.
We are currently looking at having another evaluation done to assess for a possible LD.
