What’s math got to do with it? Math learning disabilities, dyslexia and ADHD: Understanding the connections, remediating effectively
When we hear dyslexia, we think reading and writing, but 80% of people with Specific language impairment and 31% of people with ADHD struggle with math. Yet, many students miss out on high-quality mathematics remediation because the attention of schools and parents is so frequently focused on reading and writing. Join Board certified educational therapist Diana Kennedy to learn the symptoms and causes of Math Learning Disabilities and their relationships with dyslexia and ADHD, what those difficulties look like, and the best way to address them. Walk away with ideas for games, lessons, and approaches to help your students excel in math.
