Writing at last!
By the time he left school in January Sam hated writing with a passion. He hated anything that may be construed as writing. Even getting him to write his own name was a challenge. Since leaving school he has been diagnosed as dyslexic, which was always something we suspected (alongside the Aspergers Syndrome) but something that the school took no notice of. Before the diagnosis of Aspergers they took little notice of that either...but that's another story. Anyway, we have been working really hard on getting Sam to learn to read and write without making him knowingly read and write. We have used computers, research on the computer, games, stories, anything we could think of really. Well, today it has all paid off. Recently he started to write a few words at a time to write a book about Minecraft for other children. Today he wrote this whole page, totally by himself and with no pressure from anyone. He actually wanted to write! I know there are spelling mistakes and letter reversals but at this stage, I'll take the victory!
