Here's some ideas:
-Let her write standing up at the table
-Let her use window markers on a big sliding glass window
-Use colored pens and a ruler, draw lines on aluminum foil and have her try writing on that
-Chewing gum while writing
-sitting on a disk seat in her regular chair, sitting on a big exercise ball instead of a chair, using a t-stool instead of a chair
-put a bungee cord or rubber tubing on the bottom of her chair to place her feet on, or kick at
-use theraputty to exercise fingers
-if she is copying something, you can use a very slow metronome to help pace each letter
This is all stuff my dd has tried with an OT. I'm still worried about next year, but this stuff has helped enough I am hoping we are going to get over the going back to school hump.
