My son is struggling with memorizing math facts, specifically multiplication facts at the moment. Math concepts are rarely an issue, however memorization/recall is a struggle. Working memory and processing speed are significantly impaired, so I'm looking for programs or ideas specifically designed or particularly useful for children with ADHD.
DS8 is in 3rd grade (Montessori), and whatever they are doing is not working. We've tried computer programs, including online programs, but because ds is quite anxious, it turns into nightmare every time. His anxiety goes through the roof if he is timed, and I have yet to find a program that eliminates the time component but still holds his interest.
It doesn't have to be a computer program. I just tried that first because I thought it would appeal to him. I learned using the traditional "multiplication table," but I have a feeling that will not be the answer. Thanks so much for any advice or suggestions you can offer.
