An easy-to-use maths and dyscalculia assessment aimed at pupils aged between 6 to 18. Designed for everyone from maths teachers to SENCOS, specialist maths teachers, teaching assistants and parents working with young pupils and teenagers with suspected dyscalculia and maths difficulties.
Differing from screener type assessments, this tool focuses on the key aspects of the foundation areas of maths. It then provides essential information for formulating effective teaching intervention plans. It also gives you data that can lead to an error analysis for each part of the assessment.
There are two parts to the assessment: Form A and Form B, each containing an assessor booklet and a separate booklet for the child being assessed. This two-part assessment allows you to re-test the student after six months to d see how effective the interventions have been and what progress your student has made.
The assessment contains:
· - One printed assessment guide, which includes:
- An introduction to Dyscalculia and Maths Difficulties
- How to administer the assessment guidance, and what to record
- 18 Sections ranging from basic number sense, counting, reading numbers, calculation and more advanced topics such as fractions, decimals and percentages
- An outline of key features for the teaching intervention plan
· - Two complete tests (Form A and Form B) - these are downloadable online
