[quote=Anonymous]DD is 7 and hates math already. It hurts her head. She feels dumb. She's a worker and tries hard, but is feeling defeated already. I've tried talking to her teacher and she's getting a little extra help in the classroom. I've tried workbooks with her at home (Singapore Math). She really doesn't get it, and I'll admit, I'm becoming frustrated, which makes her anxiety worse. Is it time for a tutor? We can't afford $70-100/hour and hoped that MCPS would offer some kind of intervention at school, but that isn't happening. Are there any programs in place that could help? Fun computer games? If it sounds like I'm an overachieving, competitive mom, I really couldn't care less what math group she's in. I just want her to feel confident and competent at math. Growing up dyslexic, I know how these struggles affect a child's self esteem. Advice?[/quote]
