4.0 out of 5 stars A highly practical book, July 9, 2001
By 
Faye D. Klupt (owings mills, maryland USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dysgraphia: Why Johnny Can't Write : A Handbook for Teachers and Parents (Paperback)
This book provides lots of practical suggestions on how to maintain the self-esteem of children who struggle with writing.I especially like the author's statement that "With sympathetic parenting and teaching,a child will survive slow handwriting development with few or no emotional scars." Suggestions on how to identify dysgraphia and provide accommodations for it are presented in this very easy to read handbook. As an occupational therapist, I found the information on the following to be the most helpful: personal traits and performance characteristics of dysgraphic students; writing samples; praising; and accomodations. This book would help those seeking practical ways to help their child or student. It does not go into depth about the different classifications of dysgraphia.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dysgraphia-Why Johnny Can't Write, November 6, 2000

This review is from: Dysgraphia: Why Johnny Can't Write : A Handbook for Teachers and Parents (Paperback)
This is a small book packed with invaluable information! As a teacher and parent I found this book to be a wealth of information. In an easy to read and understand format I learned, as a parent, about dysgraphia, early warning signs, things to do at home and how to get help. As a teacher I learned to understand this LD from my student's perspective and I learned strategies to help him be successful in school! I highly recommend this book for parents who have a child with dsygraphia and for teachers who may have a student exhibiting symptoms of dysgraphia.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Teacher Resource, July 26, 2009

This review is from: Dysgraphia: Why Johnny Can't Write : A Handbook for Teachers and Parents (Paperback)
There is so little written about dysgraphia. I first shared this book with my son's teacher and then gave it to the Resource Library of the school. It is a quick, easy read for an instructor and can give them the valuable insight that a parent of a dysgraphic child SHOULD know.
