Warning Signs Of Dysgraphia

Dysgraphia is a condition that may reveal deeper dysfunctions underlying the coordinated effort necessary to write coherently and follow rules of grammar. The elements of skill we must master before we can master the act of writing by hand include language skills, memory, focus, spatial and sequential ordering, and graphomotor coordination skills. If a child, adolescent, or adult is having difficulty with any of these elementary functions, they may develop signs of dysgraphia. To resolve dysgraphia, they may benefit from specific instruction on each element where there is questionable capacity.
