DD [6.5] can memorize a poem by looking at it a few times. For example, The Catarpillar in FLL1.... I read it to her 3 times, wrote it on the white board to which she read it back to me 3x and knew it.
Math Facts...... :confused: no retention what-so-ever. BUT if I have her fill out number bonds or use crods she whips them out no problems. Math facts [addition] on index cards-NO.
Why is it easier for her to remember somethings and not others..... it confuses and frustrates me.
