Yes, I had heard a suggestion (maybe here?) about using grid paper to help with lining up of the problems. Now, if I could just get DS to use it. He's reluctant to try anything new, but needs time to warm to the idea - just a quirk he has. Just recently, I've noticed he's not totally opposed to turning a piece of notebook paper sideways, which helps immensely. Since I've already purchased a grid paper notebook, I'd like to see him try it and develop a habit of lining things up and then taper off of using it. All in good time.
Thanks for the tip!
