[QUOTE="Pookybear66, post: 199738, member: 5957"] Patty, I see she has many diagnosis's and obviously she's made it this far, but has she ever been tested for a learning disability. Regardless, she may need someone to just "watch her" do the problems and bounce ideas off of (not really give her the answers). My ds while much younger (8 1/2) has learning problem in reading and does well in math. However, he still wants "help" which is basically me being right next to him, keeping him on task, and him asking "is this right?" I usually respond with-"Does it look right?" and "How can you check it to see?" I know this may sound ridiculously tedious or whatever but it may be that simple. Ask her when she is NOT doing her work in a casual setting. Ask something like-"What makes math harder than it was last year?" "What can I do to help make it easier" "Do you not understand the questions?" "Do you think you need a tutor?" Maybe she will be able to tell you what the problem is, maybe not but I should think it worth a try. Let us know how it goes. [/QUOTE]
