This book, first published in 1993 has become the standard teaching text for
mathematics and dyslexia. It provides a background understanding of why
difficulties may occur and structured ideas for addressing the individual needs
of the learner. It also outlines a detailed diagnostic protocol, which has been
the basis for subsequent protocols from other workers in this field.

Topics such as accessing basic facts, when unable to retrieve them from memory,
are addressed mathematically, rather than by some less developmental method such
as singing the facts.

This third edition has been expanded to take into account new developments in
teaching mathematics to dyslexic and dyscalculic pupils. The four operations:
addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are all dealt with using
linked and mutually supporting methods. The development of maths from basic
understanding of number to algebra is covered in a coherent and inter-related
manner.

Mathematics for Dyslexics Third Edition provides a unique mix of background
theory and practical classroom ideas that are structured and mathematically
developmental. It is written in a jargon-free, accessible style presenting
maths in a non-threatening way.
