Thanks Portia. DS has sloppy handwriting and has difficulty keeping the letters between the lines on the paper. DD 4 already has nicer handwriting. He also struggles to use capitals and punctuation at the end of a sentence. Spacing is an issue if he does not use his finger. When he was younger and just learning to write we could not get him to sit down to do it and he would not color either. He does not seem to have a hard time with ideas but the act of writing. His teacher was concerned that his writing does not match his reading ability at his last conference. I am not sure what this means but I will follow up with her again this Spring.
