Dyscalculia

Some individuals have a challenge understanding the concept of quantity. They will perhaps not be able to understand the concept that different groups have a number representing the number of objects in the group.

For example, 3 books is the same group quantity as 3 chairs.

They can also fail to understand that an abstract group or sound has a number attached to it.

For example, 3 ideas, 3 wishes or 3 notes.

The Moving Numeracy programme is based on the importance of movement and an awareness of specific cognitive development.

The programme provides a framework that begins to resolve such concepts as:

• a fear of maths
• understanding number
• memory for number bonds and tables
• sequencing
• identifying directions such as left and right
• telling the time
• perceptive skills

The Moving Numeracy program is the ideal starting point for teachers and educators who want to better support students who live with the challenge of dyscalculia.
