I suspect my 7 year old ds's writing is not as advanced as what it should be for his age.
His writing is crooked, he goes outside of the lines, and his wrting goes big and then small.
He is also still writing numbers and some letterS back to front as well.
He also despises writing he is perhaps okay with a simple sentence but will start moaning if its more involved.
Homework is a nightmare if it requires a fair bit of writing.
My ds's school gives out homework sometimes that requires much more writng than my ds is prepared to do, and I feel awful as the school obviously thinks he should be able to do it.
He has a project he has to do on a animal of his choice it has got to be done in book form, with a index, glossary, facts, etc, and I know I will end up doing most of the writing for him as he gets very angry with it all.
Is anybody having similar problems with their dc.
