Thanks Grinity. What is interesting with my DS is that he has a phenomenal memory when it comes to things like sports statistics or sports plays or even when it comes to what he did when he was 2 years old! It's the writing that he has such trouble with. Maybe because he has such trouble with writing on the line and remembering which way the letters go that his memory is taken up with that and doesn't have room for the punctuation/capitalization, etc??
I like the game you mentioned with the repeating - kind of like that old game Simon - and I really liked the analogy. That makes alot of sense. I guess I need to incorporate things with him having to remember and write at the same time. Writing the friends phone numbers, writing the family tree, etc. You've given me some great things to think about - thanks!
