DS is 7 years old, in year 2. We are doing fine with home schooling in general and it is really helping me to understand his strengths and weaknesses. In common with myself and his father he is more into maths/science than English which is fine.
His handwriting is fairly poor but we are working on in, his phonics knowledge and spelling are quite good - he is in the top group and not struggling. His reading level is fine, Pearson Bug Club 'white' which seems to be the expected/slightly above the expected level for year two. But I've noticed how much he struggles with any form of creative writing - stories, poems etc. Even simple short stuff. His imagination is fine, he can design stuff from Lego/drawings etc.
Basically wondering if anyone has any tips to gently encourage this?
