Dyslexia, Dyspraxia and Mathematics is written by a teacher with many years experience of teaching mathematics to primary school dyslexic and dyspraxic children with a wide range of abilities. The book is designed to be a practical teaching guide. It offers detailed guidance and specific teaching suggestions to all specialist teachers, support teachers, classroom teachers or parents who either directly teach mathematics to dyslexic and dyspraxic children or who support the mathematics teaching programs of dyslexic or dyspraxic children. Although the book has grown out of teaching experience it is also informed by widely acknowledged contemporary and international research that explores the cognitive aspects of learning mathematics and tries to understand why it is that some children fail to learn mathematics.

Many of the teaching principles described in Dyslexia, Dyspraxia and Mathematics have specific and quite far-reaching teaching implications. The theoretical arguments will therefore also be of interest to special needs coordinators, heads of mathematics departments, head teachers or other professionals who are responsible for designing or modifying the mathematics learning programs of children with specific learning and mathematics difficulties. In more general terms, the book hopes to contribute to the broad discussion of the cognitive features and educational needs of dyslexic and dyspraxic children.
