2.5 Can a learner with dyslexia also have dysgraphia? pg. 32-33 S.G
Yes they can also have dysgraphia. This is so because children who cannot recognize letters or who
experience difficulties with learning generally also have difficulties integrating the perquisite skills
and often lose their place while writing and struggle to notice different shapes or letters.
Dysgraphia is nearly always accompanied by other learning difficulties such as dyslexia or attention
deficit disorder and this can impact the type of dysgraphia a person might have, for example
