You spend several hours every week to help your child with ,you try to motivate him, you have spoken to his teacher about his math homeworkbut the result is still the same- poor math grades. Sounds familiar? Look for these warning signs:
1) Poor grade in the report card (obviously a giveaway).
2) He spends 2-3 hours on his every night.
3) His motivation level is very low and the very thought of going to schoolmakes him sad.
4) He works hard at home, but still gets Cs and Ds.
5) He has developed a nonchalant attitude toward school-related activities.
6) He does much better in other subjects such as science or reading.
7) His teacher complains regarding missed homework or declining grades.
8) He avoids conversations with you regarding math homework completion orother school work when asked and starts acting out.
9) He complains that he has no friends at school.
10) He comes up with excuses to stay out of school, especially on math testor homework due days.
