Such an honor to present at Region 4 with my OG @OTdowdy @Region4ESC
Cracking the Code: Handwriting Observations That Matter. When we observe with purpose, we intervene with impact. A powerful session focused on what to look for, why it matters, and how small shifts in instruction can make a big difference. #Dysgraphia
