[QUOTE="keista, post: 463935, member: 11965"] Son had aversion to writing as well. I let him do written assignments at home on the computer. Teacher accepted them. At the next IEP meeting (beginning of 4th grade) I pushed for assisted technology and pulled out samples of his typewritten work vs his hand written work. BOTH the quantity and quality were better with typewritten. There was no argument getting him assisted technology especially this was the year he had to do the writing "high stakes testing" I found that anything that helps the schools (oops sorry, kids) score better on those "high stakes tests" becomes a quick and easy accommodation. So, see if he'll do written work at home on the 'puter. [/QUOTE]
