So DS6 is lightning fast at maths, but whenever we come to geometry units, I can't believe how much he struggles. Working on angles was torture for him. I am starting to wonder if it might be caused by a vision issue. My DH insists that it is just a weakness. Maybe it is just asynchrony, and geometry takes longer for the brain to see and grasp onto. Did any of your advanced math kids take longer to developmentally grasp onto geometry?Maybe he is having a hard time seeing what an angle is. And just when I think he has it, he shows he doesn't. Maybe part of the issue is the fine motor or using a protractor? Maybe I'm just over thinking it, and it is one of those humps that will take him longer to overcome than most? Or maybe it is a vision issue?
Also, the other day he was looking at two patterns which were obviuously different, and he thought they were the same.
He has been looked at by a regular eye doctor, and has minor far sightedness...not enough to wear glasses yet.
