dd's handwriting is getting worse.
She is left handed and still won't hold her pencil properly preferring to grip it in her fist.
She writes fairly fast but it's a scrawl: Letters not formed properly, joins not used correctly if at all, words floating above the line, inconsistent sizing etc etc etc.
If I try to get her to hold her pencil properly she complains it hurts after a minute.
We've tried special pencils, soft grips etc. None make much difference.
Her spelling is pretty good and has some good ideas but both are let down by what looks like careless presentation.
I'm happy to have another push on it over the summer but she is reluctant to do much!
Any bright ideas?
