Book Description
About Writing Right Writing Right is an illustrated children's book whose main character is Noah, a third grade boy with dysgraphia. Many people have never heard of dysgraphia and that is one of the primary reasons for this book. Dysgraphia affects writing skills and can make learning very difficult. In this book, Noah learns to work through his struggles with dysgraphia through perseverance, help from his mom, computer resources, and occupational therapy. Through Noah’s story, I hope to shed some light on this lesser-known disability and aid those affected. From the Author Hello! I’m Cassie, the author of this book, and a high school student from Virginia. For my Girl Scout Gold Award project, I wanted to write a children’s book that would help kids cope with the learning disability dysgraphia. I hope that kids can relate to Noah and learn along with him.

Based in cutting-edge research in neuroscience, education, and the principles of attachment-based teaching, this important guide for parents offers tools and practices to help children transcend language-based learning difficulties, do better in school, and gain self-confidence and self-esteem. If your child has a language-based learning difficulty—such as dyscalculia, dyslexia, and auditory processing disorder—they may have to work twice as hard to keep up with their peers in school. Your child may also have feelings of frustration, anger, sadness, or shame as a result of their learning differences. As a parent, it hurts to see your child struggle. But the good news is that there are proven-effective strategies you can learn to help your child be their best. This book will show you how.

In this book, you’ll discover why it’s so important to accurately assess your child, find new perspectives on LBLDs based on the most current studies, and discover tips and strategies for navigating school, home life, and your child’s future. Most importantly, you’ll learn how your own special bond with your child can help spark their interest in reading, writing, and math. Every child is unique—and every child learns in his or her own way. With this groundbreaking guide, you’ll be able to help your child thrive, in school and life.

Pages : 38
Book Description
Dysgraphia is a learning disability that affects writing ability, fine motor skills, and information processing skills. This particular disability can manifest itself in a variety of ways in people of all ages. In all cases of dysgraphia, writing takes copious amounts of energy and focus. Unfortunately, many parents ignore the potential signs of their child having a learning disability, preferring to remain in denial. However, it is much more dangerous to ignore the signs rather than face them head on, especially because the strain of overcoming such a difficult hurdle in your child's life will take patience, understanding, discipline, and a high level of encouragement. This book is designed to help you move forward in identifying and accommodating your child's learning needs, one step at a time.
