Can I have some feedback on my DS’s handwriting, please? He’s in Y1, early September birthday so the oldest in his class. I don’t know, maybe it’s because of his age the school expect him to produce better work or maybe the teacher is just being extra?
In my humble opinion there is absolutely nothing wrong with it but the issue seems to come up every time we get feedback from his teacher (parents’ eve, reports etc) as he keeps telling us more work needs to be done at home (DS not keen on the idea and I do admit that we don’t practice as much as we should)
I do realise that the work DS produces at home might be slightly better (no distractions, 1:1 attention) but I saw his school workbook and it’s of a similar standard. Should a six year old really be writing better than this? (The last word in each line is from memory so it’s not the spelling that is an issue)
