Understanding & Supporting Dysgraphia Presented by Jennifer C. King, PhD, Founder & President, Dysgraphia Life

Effective written communication is a critical skill throughout school and in adult life.

Unfortunately, dysgraphia is common but not as well studied as other types of learning

disabilities and it is often under-identified in schools. In this workshop, Dr. King will

provide a foundational understanding of dysgraphia and how to begin to recognize and

help students who are struggling with written expression.

Topics will include:

Different definitions of dysgraphia and specific learning disability of written expression

Common signs of dysgraphia and what to look for in your students

Subtypes of dysgraphia and tailoring accommodations and interventions to

individual student needs
