Ways to Teach Math Skills to Children with Language Processing Deficits

Children with language processing deficits have difficulty with understanding spoken language, completing language based tasks in school, and with the ability to retain information in long-term memory for later recall and use. They may also have difficulty with math concepts and problem solving.
