DS8 is radically accelerated, his pencil is not. He writes like the little kid that he is. Motor skills have nothing to do with brain power. Teaching him cursive helped a lot but all of his teachers allow him to type his assignments. I don't worry about it, he'll get it right when he needs to. He's like that. If he suddenly discovers a reason for something, he puts out the effort he needs to.
