Article on tackling writing problems

[Guest guest]

Writing can be particularly challenging for children with learning disabilities.

Those who have difficulties with reading and language, spelling, memory,

attention, organization, sequencing, and fine motor coordination often struggle

organize information in a meaningful way. Helping children master these

important skills requires understanding their specific problems and addressing

them with strategies that have proved to be successful.
