[quote=Anonymous]With our daughter we always just reinforce that reading the question closely and checking it again after she finishes it is part of doing the assignment and is particularly important for her. We emphasize that she understands how to do the work but her brain needs help slowing down and being careful. We have also started discussing pacing oneself on tests to make sure you get to every question and are able to put down an answer. Our DD’s problem is controlling her speed in both directions — sometimes going too slow, sometimes rushing. But I have found that emphasizing when she understands the concept is helpful in not making her shut down and get defensive. [/quote]
