Ds is nearly 6 and in p2 . He walked at 10 months and talked very early too. However, his school say he's struggling with some things (and I'd agree) :
Pencil grip is all wrong
Runs 'funny' - never noticed this
Isn't very good at ball skills
Doesn't focus and is easily distracted.
He is doing well with reading but struggling with writing and is going to get extra aupport - what would you be thinking at this stage?
Fwiw he wouldn't / couldn't use cutlery or get himself dressed until quite late and also has some issues with things like his hands getting messy when younger, or his current obsession, seams in socks being unbearable.
The teacher also mentioned he doesn't look her in the eye but IMHO this is shyness because people he knows well and is relaxed with he has no issues doing this.
Any advice / opinions?
Thanks
