I got such great advice here when despairing of how to help my 6 year old DS( ASD, speech disorder, learning difficulties) learn to read. After preserving with the Headsprout programme I am so delighted with the progress he is making. So now my attention has turned to helping him develop some number skills. He can count to20 & recognise these numbers but has no grasp of basic addition, more/less, time etc.
I was wondering is there anything like the Headsprout programme to develop maths skills. My DS is difficult to work with and motivate and Headsprout is the first time he is enjoying learning anything. We have loads of brilliant number apps on the iPad but it is a real struggle to get him to use them. We have lots of practical maths resources, games etc. but again it is a battle to use them with him. I would love to hear of any experiences of helping your child to make progress mathematically. Pig wish Headsprout did a maths version!!!!
