Dyscalculia: News from the web:
The Forsyth Family blog gives some good strategies that will work well wit dyscalculia:
- Children need concrete examples associated with real life. Visual aids, such as number lines and counters will help a child see, touch and manipulate through action.
- Using graph paper will help a child keep numbers in alignment.
- “Chunking” is a process that breaks new lessons into smaller parts. Children with dyscalculia need to see how different skills relate to new concepts.
- Review is necessary before moving on to a new skill.
- Small-group instruction can help a child focus his or her attention and feel more comfortable talking through each step.
- Create a system to help your child keep track of time.
