Homeschooling a child with dysgraphia takes a special blend of accommodations, patience, and loving care. A child like this cannot simply do a written assignment as any of your other children can. Putting letters and words to paper can be quite a struggle for a child with this kind of learning disability. Accommodations need to be made in order to facilitate learning and complete assignments.
I found tips for you from educators and homeschool moms on how to make accommodations and do remediation with this kind of special needs child. Hopefully they will make teaching your child with dysgraphia a bit easier.
