In this episode, Dr Shaddai Tembo and co-founder of Dyscalculia Network, Rob Jennings, discuss what language and number sense is, and what it means for children with dyscalculia.
Rob Highlights the importance of concrete materials in teaching as well as touching on teacher training and attitudes towards mathematics. Rob explains why visual learning is important for early years children and how a lack of this may weaken their understanding of mathematics in later life.
Practitioners may be interested to learn strategies for teaching mathematics effectively – including making learning fun – as well as more information on neurodiversity and co-occurrence of learning difficulties.
