The Dyscalculia Solution

New to bookshop!

This book by authors Jane Emerson and Patricia Babtie follows on from their award winning book, The Dyscalculia Assessment. Once careful assessment has identified the particular numeracy difficulties your pupils may have, The Dyscalculia Solution provides a practical teaching guide for addressing and solving those difficulties.

The Dyscalculia Solution includes step-by-step instructions on how to teach pupils to use whole numbers by talking and reasoning about them and communicating their thinking in verbal, diagrammatic and written form. The book includes scripts to emphasise the importance of using the correct language to develop numerical thinking, as well as teaching objectives, activities and games which are important for fostering a positive attitude towards numeracy. Each new concept builds on previous understanding so that new facts are derived by reasoning from known facts.

The Dyscalculia Solution is ideal for use with primary school children, but can easily be adapted for older students, and is invaluable for SENCO's, TA's, educational psychologists and mainstream teachers keen to support students with numeracy difficulties in their class.
