DYSCALCULIA (MATH DYSLEXIA) RESOURCES -- for learning disabilities involving Numbers and Mathematics |
Tips and Strategies for kids with Dyscalculia
|
Dyscalculia (sometimes called "Math Dyslexia") is a learning disability that causes people to invert numerals. Needless to say, this makes performing basic math functions incredibly difficult. If you are a child -- or if you are the parent of a child -- who is trying so hard to understand math and is still performing poorly, this is something you might want to rule out -- or rule in! -- before you tear his and your own hair out.
There are learning centers and tutors who can help your child learn to work within such limitations -- and overcome them! Please explore this new and growing list of resources to find help for your child.
