Accommodations for Dysgraphia That Actually Help

If your child has dysgraphia, accommodations can be life-changing. Not because they lower expectations—but because they remove barriers.

Helpful accommodations may include:

💻 typing instead of handwriting

🎤 speech-to-text for longer writing

📝 teacher-provided notes or outlines

⏳ extended time for writing assignments

📌 reduced copying demands

📚 alternative ways to show learning (oral responses, projects)

🧠 graphic organizers and sentence starters

The goal is simple:Your child should be graded on what they know—not how painful writing feels.

At My Learning Farm, we help families understand what accommodations fit their child best, and how to support writing growth while protecting confidence.
