[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My ADHD kid makes careless mistakes in math all the time. Multiplying when she should be adding, reversing numbers. She doesn’t have any disability that explains it - it’s just the adhd. Sorry no real words of advice.[/quote] Our ADHD kid too. Still doing this in high school. It's hard enough to get the concepts but once those are solid DC still gets the problems wrong due to not being able to read their own writing or forgetting to copy one expression down in the equation and all the kinds of things OP mentioned. I don't usually recommend rote math but something doing workbooks might help because it forces your child to do a lot of problems until it becomes second nature.[/quote]
