Most days, if I ask Jacob to write certain letters on a line, or trace some numbers in a row, I get a messsss of lines and squiggles that perhaps amount to a letter here or there. The problem's a cross between him not caring and HIM NOT CARING. Today, I had him write, "Happy Birthday" to his great grandma on a page he "colored" for her, and if you look closely, all the letters are there!
(Notice how he confused himself and crossed the bottom of the R as if it were his A?)
He did a great job! The only letter for which he needed to ask, "How do I make that again?" was an R, and he would only allow me a brief explanation before, "Oh yeah, I know, I know!" Once he figures out the whole concept of SPACING, he'll be good to go.

Clearly he started "birthday" and ran out of room. When that happens you just continue on a new line. Any kindergartener knows that. :P
