If your child has difficulty following instructions and completing homework in math—it may not be that they are inattentive—they may have a condition known as Dyscalculia. Dyscalculia is a specialized learning disorder. Your child may not have any problem with other studies, but be below the normal standards for their age in math. One of the hallmark signs of Dyscalculia is incorrectly counting on fingers and difficulty with remedial math, even when showing persistence and attention. If your child shows these symptoms you may wish to have them checked for Dyscalculia.

Dyscalculic students quickly fall behind in math, fail to achieve automaticity with prerequisite skills, and appear to acquire skills but quickly lose them.

Key Takeaways:

1
Dyscalculia is not caused by inattention, illness, insufficient interest or motivation, anxiety, poor instruction, poor study skills, and other environmental causes.
2
Psychologists and psychiatrists classify dyscalculia as a specific learning disorder with impairment in mathematics.
3
In practical daily living, dyscalculia can have difficulty in counting, managing finances, and figuring due change. As well as calculating tips, taxes, and discounts.
