Description
" Teaching Students with Dyscalculia is a must read for preservice and current teachers. It is a guide for appropriate modifications and accommodations for students with Dyscalculia and other Specific Learning Disabilities. It also gives educators a better understanding of what it is like to be a student with Dyscalculia and how a student with Dyscalculia's brain is functioning. " -- G. Eads, Southern Ohio Educational Service Center
Teaching Students with Dyscalculia explains this learning disorder, its origins, and its impact on learning math. Dr. Honora Wall, author and speaker, calls upon her personal experience as a dyscalculia specialist and teacher to help other educators support their students with dyscalculia. "I wrote this book so teachers, interventionists, and tutors can help students be successful in math right now, using any math curriculum or program," says Dr. Wall. Parents and administrators will appreciate the easy-to-read explanations of how children learn math, and how dyscalculia gets in their way. Each chapter contains specific instructional strategies and accommodations that teachers can put into place today. Six case studies that detail the learning journey of real students are included.
