    DS15 (10th grade) results for WIAT-IIIs subtests were

    Math Problem Solving 119 90% >12.9 Above Average
    Numerical Operations 131 98% >12.9 Superior
    Math Fluency-Addition 111 77% >12.9 Average
    Math Fluency-Subtraction 100 50% 10.1 Average
    Math Fluency-Multiplication 96 39% 7.5 Average

    DS is stumbling on in class math tests, for instance he is flipping (+) and (-) sign and obviously not arriving at the right answers. Class test results are scattered and DS is frustratred.

    Is there any AT device that can read a problem with exponents and parenthesis?

    Would love to hear what others have found to work.

    Happy Thanksgiving and TIA....

    Just wanted to share what I found for math apps....
    modmath
    Math Paper
    Design Science
    conceptua math

    Then some non-technical strategies were offered, such as highlighting (+) and (-) or exponentials with designated colors at the beginning of a paper test with the hopes that the highlights would lessen misinterpretation.

    I would still love to hear of other math apps that others have found useful.
