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. The graphomotor functions of adults as they age is especially pronounced in elderly individuals, and more impactive if they are also suffering memory problems. Below, we have expounded the various signs of dysgraphia in greater detail to help readers develop an understanding of the contours manifested by this disorder.
