But momosam, isn't your son diagnosed with dysgraphia? In my school district in southern New Hampshire, those sorts of problems-- severe lack of knowledge of encoding rules; ignoring certain sounds completely during encoding; getting other sounds completely wrong (e.g. "Bos" for "bush" shows an attempt to use an O to make a short U sound, "sodley" for "suddenly" does the same, and discards an entire syllable, etc.); persistent mixing of upper-case and lower-case letters; backwards Gs, etc.-- in a rising first grader would probably trigger an assessment for learning disabilities very quickly.
