Subject: backward writing? Author: kez [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 10:12:59 10/01/09 Thu hi recently a friend asked me whether i'd ever heard of backward writing and if i knew what it meant. i told her i'd heard of mirror writing but this wasnt what she meant. her 3yr old son has begun writing alot but writes in a reverse order. he will start from the end of the word on the right hand side of the page, the letters are in correct order and not mirrored and read correctly from left to right. he just begins the word from the last letter instead of the first. ive googled this alot and cant find anything like it. is it just his way of learning or is there a specific reason he does this. i'll also add that he is an extemely quite and shy child but also quite intellegent. he is spelling all his words from memory. they are mostly names of TV channels he watches like Living Tv and Animal Planet and Cartoonito. also when there are two words like in animal planet, he will write Animal first from the right hand edge then Planet underneath again from the right hand edge. any ideas??
