Quick Overview

Overcoming Difficulties with Number uses real world teaching experience to help students improve their mathematics. Specially written to help students with dyscalculia and those students who struggle with maths on a daily basis, Overcoming Difficulties with Number contains detailed strategies for teachers as well as fun maths games for students. The practical activities and visualisation techniques within the book, coupled with the resources, games and activities on the accompanying CD Rom, will have students excited about learning mathematics and happy with their success. Topics covered include bridging, multiplication, division and reasoning strategies. With easy to reproduce mathematics activities, Overcoming Difficulties with Number is an ideal resource for teachers and students alike.

In writing this practical book, Ronit Bird has drawn on her teaching and training experience to create teaching plans for key numeracy topics, aimed at those working with students aged 9-16.

She provides detailed strategies for teaching numeracy skills through a progression of practical activities and visualisation techniques which build the self-esteem of students who need extra help and give them a basic foundation in number. While the plans cover the National Numeracy Strategy, they can also be used in any setting where maths is being taught.

Topics covered include:

  • games and puzzles for learning number components
  • bridging
  • multiplication
  • division
  • reasoning strategies

A bank of accompanying resources, games, activities and Su-Doku puzzles is available on the CD included with this book.

This is an ideal resource for both class teachers and maths subject teachers, and is equally useful for teaching assistants and learning support assistants
