So mummy was looking for some spirometers for her friend and I asked my mama if i could hold my pencils the way i wanted or must i hold the pencil the teachers wanted me to? I wanted to cry because i don’t like the way the teachers wanted me to hold my pencil – it just hurt too much. So mama asked daddy to write a note for my teacher to let me hold the pencil the way i want and that I will change when i am ready.
But mama is worried because i do have an odd way of holding my pencils but she just didn’t want me to fear going to school, therefore, she is letting this one go for now. But you see – i can draw and write perfectly well, so why won’t they listen to me. Daddy said to let me be for now and will try and fix the pencil thing next year. What do you think of my drawing and handwriting? do you think i need to hold my pencils like a beak way?
