Hello, my 6 year old girl who is also bilingual (English and Czech) has problems in remembering number 7 and 9, not even mentioning number 10. I repeat it to her 100times, and she still forgets:-(
I am beggining to worry, can she be dislexic? has anyone had any similar problems. Many thanks

Try not to worry

Have you been in to see her class teacher?
Ask her is she has any concerns with your dd school work.

It could just be that your dd gets confused between the languages.

My ds speaks 2 languages and even though we speak english at home and school he still comes out with certain french words first for things

My DD still goes to kindergarden, she starts school this September. The teacher is there to play with them, although he is great at creating with kids everything from rockets to witch house, he is quite untrained at the learning abilities. That;s why his opinion on my DD maths is "I don't know much about this" It is just weird that she remembers all the other numbers or signs and some she doesn't. Well,anyway thanks for your advice, I'll try not to worry.

Wait till she starts school and if you are still worried then speak to the teacher.
You could see a big difference once she starts school
