Dd2 is 11, Year 6. She is a bright girl and off to a girls' grammar in September which she's really looking forward to.
She is mildly dyspraxic and although her handwriting is of quite a mature style, it does get a bit messy when she's in a rush. But the thing I'm noticing a lot is how much crossing out there is.
How does your child correct mistakes? My older dd uses blue ink so can use an ink eraser. Dd2 writes in black so it isn't an option. I try and encourage her to write/plan writing tasks first on rough paper which she isn't keen to do.
How important is good presentation? Will it be an issue at secondary school?
I presume tipp-ex is a big no-no these days??
