Every Mind Counts: The Parent's Guide to Dyscalculia
What the Diagnosis Means, What Actually Helps, and How to Raise a Confident Kid Who Learns Math
A practical guide for parents after a dyscalculia diagnosis: what the words mean, what actually helps, and how to raise a confident kid who learns math.
$7.99
If your child was just identified with dyscalculia, someone should have told you what it really means. This book says it, then proves it.
Written in plain parent language, it explains what is happening inside your child's number brain, what the school should do, and what you can do at your own table - no math degree required.
What's inside
- What is actually happening in your child's number brain, in parent language
- Why facts learned Monday vanish by Thursday, and why timed tests cause tears
- How to decode the evaluation report and understand the three dyscalculia profiles
- IEP versus 504 in plain English, with the exact accommodations to request
- Meeting scripts that move rooms and the four markers of real intervention
- The homework protocol that ends the tears: three questions that outperform every explanation
- The meltdown plan, the words that rebuild math identity, and the ones to retire tonight
- A full quick-reference section: IEP checklist, jargon translator, and ten sentences to say this month
