We hear this often: “why do we need a diagnostic assessment; I can tell you what my child can and cannot do with math”.
The analogy is with your general physician, when you visit them with pain in your stomach area, you cannot just say: “please treat me I can point you where the pain is”. The doc needs to get some testing done to see if the cause would be the bad taco you ate yesterday evening or if it could be an ulcer.
Likewise with dyscalculia we need to have a diagnostic assessment to see where exactly the trouble with math comes from and how we can best help you or your child.
