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 on 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.
