Math
- I have trouble remembering math facts and procedures.
- I can remember math facts (adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing) one day, but I may not
remember them the next day.
- I find it hard to copy numbers and work with numbers in columns.
- I get left and right mixed up.
- When I'm working a math problem, I can't remember which direction to go.
- I confuse similar numbers, e.g., 6 and 9, 2 and 5 or
I turn numbers around when I write them,
e.g., 691-8512 for 961-8215.
- I read numbers backwards, e.g., 18 for 81, 21 for 12.
- It's hard to remember the steps in math problems: e.g., in renaming (carrying and borrowing) or in long division.
