My son is under the local child development centre because he had orthopedic problems that made him late walking. He had 18 months of physio and now runs about happily. He is now four years and 10 months and you would never know he ever had a problem. The child development centre want to keep an eye on him until he finishes his first term of school.
Andrew is doing really well at reading and his maths is developing nicely. However hand writing is a real nightmare. His teacher is concerned and thinks that the may need an IEP so that he can get extra help with hand writing. I have no objections to him having an IEP, but surely it is not unusual for a reception child to have very poor pen control.
Do you think I should mention it to our paediatrian? Is it unusual for a four year old not be able to form letters.
