In a bit of a hurry here, but thought our experience might hold out some hope for folks! Our 2e ds scored relatively low in WM on his initial WISC in 2nd grade, and we'd hoped to somehow work on improving it... but got so caught up in accommodating/remediating dysgraphia and also attempting to get him appropriate intellectual challenge in school that we never did do anything specific to target WM. In spite of that, his WM scores did in fact improve quite a bit when he was re-tested with the WISC at the end of 5th grade. His neuropsych told us that WM is one area that can improve and many times does improve just with maturity.

eta - fwiw, I still have working on it as a goal for ds if we ever find the time!
