Dysgraphia

Dyslexia: Part Of Specific Learning Disorder: Dysgraphia Part 1 of 3

Well first let me say life has been lifing for me on so many levels, here we are Sunday night, and I am currently pecking away, and I thank you for your patience. I know, I have been missing inaction due to unforeseen end challenges, please bear with me.

So, far I have shared the Specific Learning disorders, this area has had at least seven categories that can intertwine (that is another discussion which we will have). At this time, we will continue the discussion of the subcategories which are directly under the umbrella of SLD.

I hope this has been helpful to some and informational for others. These are just a few examples of the different forms. It is important to note that specific learning disorder can vary in severity and presentation from person to person. Additionally, some individuals may experience a combination of these forms or have symptoms that don’t neatly fit into a single category. Proper diagnosis and treatment by a mental health professional are essential for effectively managing all disorders

Today I will be sharing with you part 1 of this disorder which is part one of three subtypes such: Dyslexia (reading), Dysgraphia (writing), and Dyscalculia (mathematics). We begin with Dyslexia and currently on Dysgraphia, last but not least we will follow with Dyscalculia..

Thank you for continuing to support me. I will be posting more information concerning the many forms and subtypes of these disorders during the coming month at which point we will continue with this mental health challenge. I will start with and follow the same format.

DYSGRAPHIA

*The history of Dysgraphia?

* What it is?

* Another name for it (if it has one)?

*  Characteristics of the disorder?

History of Dysgraphia:

Dysgraphia was first recognized in the mid-1900s as researchers studied children who were intelligent but struggled specifically with writing. As learning disabilities became better understood, dysgraphia was identified as a brain-based writing disorder, not a problem with effort or motivation. Today, it is recognized as part of Specific Learning Disorders.

What Is Dysgraphia?

Dysgraphia is a learning disorder that makes writing difficult. A person may struggle to form letters, space words, spell correctly, or organize thoughts on paper—even though they know what they want to say. The brain has trouble coordinating thinking, language, and fine motor skills needed for writing.

Another Name for It:

Dysgraphia is sometimes called a Written Expression Disorder or Disorder of Written Expression, especially in educational or medical settings.

Characteristics of Dysgraphia:

People with dysgraphia may have messy or hard-to-read handwriting, trouble holding a pencil, slow writing speed, poor spelling, or difficulty organizing ideas in writing. Writing can be tiring or frustrating, and spoken ideas are often much stronger than written ones. Intelligence is not affected—only the ability to put thoughts on paper.

Please follow me next week when will share information concerning dysgraphia:

 

* What are some of the challenges people affected with dysgraphia?
