11. I agree with most posters here. Begin with the teacher. If your daughter has no problems with math
at home, it is not her ability to learn. You need to meet with the teacher and point this out (very diplomatically). Ask the teacher for advice about how to help her in the classroom situation. If there is a school counselor, definitely get advice there. If the teacher doesn't respond, you must go to the principal. It will not be good for your child to be placed in a remedial class if she doesn't actually need it. You have to be her advocate now. That's your job.
