My 10 y/o dd attends a private school for dyslexic children. She is making great strides with her reading, and is quickly approaching grade level. However, math continues to be a struggle. According to her teacher, she has a mind for math. However, we’ve been trying to use Great Leaps Math with her at home, and it has become very clear that she truly doesn’t understand the fact families. She says she doesn’t seen the numbers in her mind. I’ve purchased LMB Cloud Nine and the Landmark Math programs, and am trying to combine the best of both to find a way to work with her. We’re using the Landmark Icons and the V/V of LMB (along with math cubes) and I am trying to apply those to the basic fact families to help her get the basics down. Does anyone have suggestions on things I should be doing with her? I’m certainly not a teacher, and find that I don’t receive much guidance from her teacher at school. It’s quite small, and the teacher is also the director — so is overwhelmed often. She’s wonderful with reading, but other subjects tend to take a back seat. Our thought has been to get her reading and we’ll try to fill in the blanks!
