[Francine_Litz]

just curious... are you good or bad in math?

my eldest is great in art and math
my little one seems to be following in her footsteps...

Animation - that's very neat. Have you seen the Pixar films?

I know many many people without BPI like that Tom
from mary (aka marymom who is having alot of trouble signing in as marymom the last few days...eeeeeeek)

me again
I wanted to ask also, were the spelling problems only when you were writing? as wierd as this sounds, when my 11 year old(not the erbs kid) was in 2nd grade he was spelling failing, and when he was home and I would ask him the words he could spell them verbally just fine, we homeschooled that year, within a few years he learned to spell on paper too, but it trook some time/
did that make sense?

Hi Tom
Gavin is quite good at Math and also drawing, spelling is not quite so good, but I think that's because he's always rushing his english homework to concentrate on hi math and science.
I don't know who he gets his love of math from, I HATE it and ahve never been good at it, not has his Dad!
In fact when his brother needs help with math homework, he just takes it to Gavin automatically now, and ignores me and his Dad!

Oh I can do simple math,I know you dont have to be disabled to have a problem in school but I wonder about Art and the side of the brain when there is a loss in use in a limb? Ill be the first to tell you that computer art are is great I draw some on the computer but that with a mouse. I was going to take a class but I found out that I needed to know algerbra to take a class so I hope that math isnt a problem for others I even understand I cartoon like Homer Simson But all you have to do is see finial fantice and The high degree of Cad design and algerbra you need.Last Movie I saw was Nemo..Nice talking to you.

I belive it is how kids are put in a mold and are expected to learn the same way. To me some teachers did help me but somethings I got and somethings I never learned It gust never stuck.I alway tryed but as I got older I gust excepted that somethings I cant do well but who can disabled or not I just stay happy by focus on what I can do.and that is why I want to help others with Erbs or Parents If I can.NICE TALKING TO YOU.

Hi,somethings just dont make sence my mom was a CPA and my brother is a CPA . I can work out how many frams per second I need to animate something and do it smothly but ask me to do fractions and Iam at aloss.One thing surprizes me how ware Instein could Do all that math and had problem with simple math.all of us have so many talents It just finding them in life that is the challenge.and also what we learn when we are young but forget somethings as we get older because we seem not to use what we did learn.

this is interesting!

My family are good at maths and i honestly cant count! well i can do simple stuff like basic sums but in my head i dont have the ability to count in my head, id need a pen and paper, but my parents can do MASSIVE sums in their head!!

When i write my spelling is terrible! like i will write a "w" upside down and i will become and "m" its really silly things like that and longer words are hard to write but i can think them and spell them out. Also if im watchin a word game on TV i can get the words with a few letters in place so i can spell jst now when im writing. I get a lot of letters round the wrong way- lol its like an anagram!

Art, i cant draw or anything like that but iv your are taking art as a whole im very good at music. But i know a few people like that, so maybe its not an erbs thing. Maybe its a thing about if youv got a talent for art its not hard work whereas maths and spelling are!

Emma is only 7 years old, but she has been drawing A LOT for a few years. She even makes her own books and illustrates them! She's still learning to spell, so it's too early to tell, but she definitely has an artistic nature to her. She's really pretty good (and that is not just the mother in me!)
