The maths factor provides some free sample lessons and in our link for today we share the clever trick they use to learn the times table of 3. Children with Dyscalculia are better served with conceptual understanding and working with manipulatives to learn times tables but this trick is just too clever not to share it.

Dyscalculia: News from the web:
In these days of working from home it is still important to work with manipulatives to explain math concepts to the student. Certainly the ones who have dyscalculia.
One wonderful source for that is the polypad from Mathigon. A rich source of various colorful manipulatives. It seems the best alternative for sitting next to the student with real manipulatives.

Read the wonderful example in this post from Tony Attwood about how to explain fractions to someone with dyscalculia by doing a little physical exercise. Something they can touch and see. It works better for them this way and brings the true understanding they need in order to be able to relate to the concept later.

Dyscalculia: News from the web:
From Australia comes the news that they have now implemented a new mandate on how to identify and work with students who are both gifted and have a learning disability, the so-called 2e students.
The traditional way of identifying gifted students was to look at their achievement, but this overlooked students with hidden potential.
Dr Townend said twice-exceptional students need both learning support and enrichment or extension to reach their potential, and supporting the disability in the classroom was essential to level the playing field.
“It’s like giving a wheelchair to a child who cannot walk or glasses to a child who needs glasses,” she said.

On facebook we read the solution Laurie Graham found when dealing with this
“For piano, I have been using “simply piano” app, (with a midi cord on an electric keyboard- makes a big difference).Unlike traditional sheet music which needs to be scanned with your eyes right to left , this app presents it rolling along in front of me, highlighting the notes I’m playing correctly in green, and I can play basic popular songs in a way that has eluded me after years of lessons.”

Great tip by
@Backup_Uganda
You want to reward your students for something they control, like completing their task, not for something that would not be under their control, like “being smart”, which would make them afraid to say something as it may turn out that they may no longer be smart.

Well here is some research that sounds promising:
Students with an abacus course demonstrated better performance in arithmetic computation and spatial short‐term memory after controlling for age, gender, grade, and other basic cognitive abilities. The results suggest that the abacus course could be an effective tool for DD intervention in natural education settings.
