I think this underlining is just what he needs - THANK YOU.
So far it's not a big deal losing a point or 2 in Math papers because the directions have only referred to one or two problem.
If he overlooks something like circle all the odd numbers and there are 10 problem he is in trouble. I'm thinking this is just the specifics he needs - looking for the key words and focus on what he NEEDS to do. After completing spelling sentences check for t's crossed and periods should help too.
WOW! I'm just realizing the real problem for the first time.
Now that I'm thinking of the math situation, the problem is usally with two part instruction. His fast brain probally just jumps to first instruction and finishes it. He has to think about the problems he is doing SO he forgets about the second instruction. He probally doesn't realize what he is doing.
This seems so simple. Why didn't I think of that?
