Signs of dyscalculia and other tips from a math expert | In It

Dyscalculia Mentor

One of our graduates is now available to help working with students who have dyscalculia.

Here is what the website says:

Robert Regan (M.A., Education), founder of Dyscalculia Mentor, has over 20 years of experience teaching in public schools. He has been teaching math in Virginia since 2013 and received certification in dyscalculia tutoring from Dyscalculia Services in 2023. He has a passion for helping students generate insight into mathematical concepts.

Seeing math students thrive when they can make discoveries at their own level inspired Robert to focus his attention on students with dyscalculia. He saw that the power of genuine, hands-on math instruction can build bridges throughout the dyscalculic mind.

Dyscalculia Mentor serves students in central Virginia (Richmond and surrounding areas).

The trouble with lego

This comes from an old facebook posting. It looks great to make fractions more accessible to children, if they are into lego, however it starts with 8 and not with 10 and much of everything in our metric world is based on ten, but that does not work with lego.
