Anyone have any ideas that might help us? DS (Yr 3) is quiet and sensitive. He is fine at reading but really struggles with written work. His handwriting is ok, he has had his eyes checked, and he understands what he has to do, but he just doesn't seem to be able to get on and do it. He can spell, he understands punctuation - all the bits that make up 'writing's he seems to have - but he still can't seem to write more than a few words unless he has one-to-one support. If I dictate a sentence he can write it down, but if left to make up his own sentence he will still have a blank sheet of paper an hour later. He has been seen by OT and they have said he doesn't have dyspraxia. He has been assessed as being reasonably bright. Does anyone have any ideas about how I could help him, or what might be the problem? Thank you!
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
