[quote=Anonymous]It’s the ADHD- it’s hard to sustain focus for the length of time required to do math especially the Eureka way. One thing that helped in our house was running math facts. If you have to pause your train of thought to sing a song to know what 6x6 is, then it’s hard to pick up the thoughts again without making an error (and a different one every time, like you noticed). Schools don’t emphasize facts anymore and that works for NT kids but ADHD kids get too distracted. We would do like two minute drills while brushing hair in the morning - nothing formal and nothing written. But it helped slightly. [/quote]
