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

One dot and the number one

Two dots and the number two

…etc …
