These students that struggle with math, most of them have really sloppy handwriting.
So having that ample space to write and show their work is going to be really helpful for them and
A lot of errors are made from having to take a problem from the paper and transfer it to a different piece of paper.
even that process of copying from one page to another, errors can be made.
I'm sure, yeah.
Yeah.
And so if we can ask for fewer problems on the page for tests and homework, um, and even reduced homework instead of uh assigning 52 problems in the middle school
um let's do 15 instead.
And that typically helps students too, limits the overwhelm.
Because me as the tutor, my goal is to get them to really understand why we're doing this, um, how we can do it more efficiently.
And so we're spending a lot of time doing that instead of mindlessly going through these exercises.
they're not retaining as much.
And so if you can ask for reduced problems, that really, really helps.
We'll be right back after this quick break.
Other things you could ask for would be uh notes.
You could ask if this is a long shot too, but it doesn't hurt to ask if the student can have access to a classmate's notes, meaning they copy 'em and the teacher gives them to the student.
So there's a little bit of um you have to be careful there as far as like the student notes that you're copying, they need to not know it's for your child kind of thing.
So the teacher has to be totally committed to trying to keep that anonymous so that your your student isn't embarrassed by this because
If your student has dysgraphia or really struggles with writing or it's really sloppy, it is unlikely they're going to take notes, but they really needed notes so they can remember what the teacher said.
So that's something you could do.
