Do you mean writing as in cursive or as in putting together coherent sentences into a paragraph?
If it's cursive...forget about it, it's going to die soon. Out of all the things I'm doing with my sixes, I spend no time on it. It's a "nice to know", not a "need to know".
If it's the writing process in general, I notice a degradation in overall ability. Chalk that up to diversity. A severely normal child doesn't get enough feedback or time from a teacher in order to excel. Parents that are active in their child's learning are a huge asset. It's easy to identify them.
