Copy Tasks and Writing Skills
[Source: Your Therapy Source]
Copying skills are important for both school and daily life because they let you write down something quickly and without mistakes. However, no one has studied these skills in children who learn easily and children who learn differently. A new study investigated this topic by looking at how well kids can complete copy tasks and how it relates to other writing tasks. This study participants were children with typical development (TD) and specific learning disabilities (SLD).
Improving copying skills is not only essential for academic success but also for daily life. Writing is an essential skill in almost all aspects of life, from filling out forms to writing emails. Children who struggle with copying skills may face difficulties in completing schoolwork and miss out on opportunities later in life. Therefore, it is essential to prioritize the development of copying skills in all children, especially those with SLD.
