I would not be surprised if she becomes an effective writer, retaining some of her unique energy, as she learns more sophisticated perspective-taking. (Creating the wackiness internally for the reader, rather than externally.)

I thought from my research that DD was visual spatial - it make a lot of sense! I think I have a book on my list to order about the topic (one of many books to read!!)

The school principal listed graphic organizers as part of DD's accommodations in DD's 504. I am eagerly waiting to see one come home. In fact I just sent an email to the principal since the teacher hasn't yet bothered to provide one for DD (insert grumpy tone here).
