He keeps missing points on tests because he is trying to do something much harder than what the simple question is asking! It is still a struggle to not doubt your child's abilities when the school can't see it.

    DS6 is the same way. He answers correctly his own questions. I believe that happens even more when the questions are way too easy.

    Good luck with the school.
