A low math grade could simply be a sign that your child is not paying attention in class or is failing to turn in her homework. However, it could also be due to a learning disability.

Some students struggle with math because they suffer from dyscalculia. Rather than describing a specific set of symptoms, this term refers to a broad range of learning disabilities that cause difficulty comprehending the symbols and concepts of mathematics.
