MYTHS OF DYSCALCULIA


A through in-depth look into math challenges
​an individual may face.

Professor Butterworth is the UK’s leading authority on dyscalculia and is currently working with colleagues in many countries on the neuropsychology and the genetics of mathematical abilities. He is interested in how the brain processes numerical information and he published in 2003 the Dyscalculia Screener. This is a computer-based assessment for teachers that indicates dyscalculic tendencies by measuring pupils' response times as well as the accuracy of their answers.
 A CONVERSATION WITH BRIAN BUTTERWORTH - 
STEPS YOU CAN TAKE TO HELP SUPPORT YOUR CHILD.
​
Look for an educational psychologist for planning and guidance, speak and work closely with your child's teacher or special needs tutors, research tools online for alternative methods for learning.

STRATEGIES

 Multisensory instruction 
​The use of sight, touch, hearing and movement can make it easier to understand what the numbers and symbols represent.
​
Here are 10 multisensory techniques for teaching math.

GETTING ACCOMODATIONS IN CLASS

Generally in Mainstream Curriculum, you must definitely submit a report after an assessment by your educational psychologist or educator working with your child, and a report from teachers in school advocating for the need as well. Diagnosis may vary on a case-by-case basis as there is no appropriate diagnostic criteria for dyscalculia yet.

​Common accommodations:
*Extra Time
*Extra Paper for working
*Bigger Font/ Paper
*Usage of Calculator for calculations
