A far larger number of pupils, while not dyscalculic, fail to acquire the basic numerical skills required for everyday life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhatever the cause of poor numeracy it is essential that these difficulties are identified and addressed. This book looks at how adults can help identify each child's specific areas of difficulty and describes a multi-sensory approach that can be adapted for the needs of each student to help them better understand numbers and apply that understanding to solve problems. It covers the origins of number sense and how the brain deals with numbers, assessment, planning intervention, what to teach and how to teach it, and how parents can help their children. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This straightforward guide will be essential reading for any parent, teacher or education professional working with a child with dyscalculia or numeracy difficulties.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePatricia Babtie has taught children and adults with maths learning difficulties since 1998.
