SYMPTOMS OF DYSCALCULIA

Dyscalculia is not as often talked about as dyslexia. People often misunderstood a child’s struggle with word problems as a sign of dyscalculia. While it can be, it is often a case of confusion with the language used in such word problems and so is more of a comprehension issue.

People with dyscalculia struggle with understanding numeracy, trouble with counting, confusion with mathematical symbols, counting with fingers instead of advancing to mental calculations, etc.

Above is a list that you can refer to to see if your child could be exhibiting symptoms of dyscalculia.
