AL-salahat, Mohammad Mousa Salem – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2022
Geometry is one of the basic areas of school mathematics education, and it is important for elementary students. However, students with mathematics learning disabilities (MLD) struggle with geometry learning. Research has demonstrated that concrete-representational-abstract (CRA) teaching is an effective practice for students with learning…

Koç, Beyza; Korkmaz, Isa – Psycho-Educational Research Reviews, 2020
In this study, it was aimed to teach the addition and subtraction to a student with dyscalculia who is in third grade at elementary school. Before preparing individualized program, the student was given a pretest to measure about his level of the subject. The instruction was carried out in a room in the school, with a time of 40 minutes per day in…
