I have to keep in mind how long my son's patience level is and what is the best time of day to do things. It can be tricky. I have always thought if DS could start the day with a jog he would be more relaxed and ready to learn.
If the Math is stressing him consider taking a break from for a few days. Then before you start it up ask him, "how he could make the situation better?" Try to listen mostly and get him to solve the problem. Maybe he needs a day to think about it.(I find this hard to remember. Thanks for reminding me)
Hope this helps. Hang in there.
I read somewhere when children seem to deserve a hug the least is when they need it the most. This has helped me.
