5 Minute box - Maths
The Number Box is a multi sensory teaching programme and maths resource. It was designed for those children who struggle with maths for one of several reasons.
- Dyslexic children find sequential skills, organisation and spatial operations in maths more challenging, and require resources and patient teaching.
- Children who have receptive and expressive language difficulties may take longer to understand and use the complex maths vocabulary.
- Dyscalculic children have great difficulty understanding the concept of number at all and may stay working with the resources and programme of The Number Box through the Infant school and on into Junior school.
To understand number concepts, it is vital that children have no gaps in their understanding. The aim of The Box is to allow children to access the daily maths lesson in class with continued support of practical resources, whilst working through their individual programme on The Box in 1:1 time, to ensure that they have a complete understanding of all the stages.
