I've been thinking about this little gal
By pjm

Clip to ScrapBook   
and I was wondering about a language processing deficite...it seems the language of math confuses her...and also is she a visual or verbal learner? Was this a math problem that she could have drawn a picture of to help her
solve it and if yes was she capable of drawing the picture to help her?

I find with my LD kids if you start counting by 2', 5's or even 10's and you begin the count at a weird place ...say count by 10's but start at 13 they can't do it...only if you begin at 10 and go can they do it...is this her problem also?

I'd talk to the speech teacher about your concerns and see if she could

do an informal language test on her to see if there may possibly be a processing deficite....also don't forget to document all these troubles so that when you come to team you can be very specific
