Guest guest Posted August 15, 2005 Report Share Posted August 15, 2005 Viola, Has your OT tried the Handwriting without Tears program? That's a great one that they started introducing to last year. I'm hoping it continues this year at his new school. I looked into buying the program for at home too. Take care, Jayne mfroof@... wrote: <<he can not print at all, have any of you ran into this and if so how did you deal with it?>> Hi, Everyone....Viola....Gareth learned to print in 1st grade along with the regular kids. Granted, his writing isn't the best, but it's no worse than his older 'normal' brother. At first, we weren't sure if he was right or left handed and kinda left it up to him as far as which hand he picked up the pencil in. I know they did a lot of hand over hand initially to get him to hold the pencil properly and teach him what he was to be doing with it. In 3rd grade, the OT that was working with him twice a week, taught him cursive writing. Don't give up hope!!! Take care, Everyone.
