Math with the Davis Dyslexia Program
• In this practice we exercise counting with the help of dice and what the dots on the dice mean
• The children are handed clay which they are to use to make the number of balls which the teacher specifies
• The teacher writes down on the whiteboard how many balls they are to make from 1 to 6
Learning the name of the numbers
• We noticed that many of the children did not know the names of the numbers
• So we got them some plastic numbers and started to play with them
• The children played with dice and the plastic numbers• With the numbers we were able to compare them and
put them on the right order • We talk about:
– Which numbers are higher or lower then surden numbers– Which number equals to the number of dots on the dice
