Effect dyslexia on early learning of mathematics to the children
Abstract
Many dyslexic children have problems in math, particularly the multiplication tables, fractions, decimals, percentages, ratios, and statistics. A dyslexic student usually requires extra teaching, mainly as new concepts do introduce. With this subject, it is vital to grasp each concept thoroughly before moving on. Although research has indicated that difficulties in language experienced by dyslexic people frequently go hand in hand with problems in mathematics, there has been too little emphasis on expert study for those having problems with math (Henderson, 2013). With the help of specialist teaching and the introduction of effective strategies into their learning, these people can get higher levels of mathematical understanding and functioning. This paper will examine how dyslexia can affect mathematics teaching and how cognitive weakness can affect mathematics teaching for dyslexic learners. Then explore how to assess and diagnose the mathematics difficulties for students with dyslexia. The researcher will also consider how to facilitate mathematical learning in children with dyslexia.
