Dyscalculia = “difficulty in learning or comprehending mathematics” dyscalculia. org • Identified in patients suffering brain trauma resulting in math problems • Arithmetic difficulties in calculation and number memory deficits “dys” = Greek, “badly” “calculia” = Latin, “calculare”, “to count”
Dyslexia/ Dyscalculia Are they related?
Characteristics of Dyscalculia Confusing signs, +, -, x, ÷ Inability to tell which is larger Rely on ‘counting on’ strategies Difficulty with mental math, tables Inability to remember concepts, rules, sequences, formulas Rotate numbers, 56 as 65 Difficulty estimating everyday time, money, comparisons in amount and measurement Difficulty with score keeping, rhythmsequential processing; dance, cheerleading
Simulation How does it feel to many children in math class! Errors often occur when students don’t know basic facts fluently Project Access, web. utk. edu/~access/mathdisabilities. html

What made this task difficult? Pattern Recognition Not knowing basic facts/ information Fluency with all new skills
Best Practices in Math Choose fewer topics to teach at each grade level Be diagnostic and prescriptive/individualize to match needs Guide to success is pacing and vice versa Be mindful of learning style/ moving from simple to complex Give feedback and clues to help scaffold learning Teach concepts and promote fact fluency Focus on applying problem solving skills
