Grades 2-3
Dyscalculia Intervention Workbook - Grade 2-3
Multisensory math activities for students who are still finger counting and cannot make facts stick.
By second grade, math moves faster than a student with dyscalculia can rebuild the foundation underneath it. Facts are drilled, place value is assumed, and the gap widens quietly.
This workbook slows down without watering down. Fewer problems, more depth, and a visual model beside every abstract step so the reasoning stays visible.
What's inside
- Ten-frame and number line work that replaces finger counting with mental images
- Addition and subtraction strategies built on structure instead of memorization
- Place value activities using grouping and expanded form
- Estimation practice so students can judge whether an answer is reasonable
- Word problems introduced with consistent, predictable language
- Generous white space and identical page layouts to protect working memory
Use this level if you see
- Still finger counting for basic facts well into second or third grade
- Facts do not stick even after weeks of drilling
- Confuses place value, reading 27 as 72 or writing 105 for one hundred five
- Takes much longer than peers on the same page and tires quickly
Who it's for
- Parents supporting homework without recreating the struggle
- Second and third grade teachers running small-group intervention
- Math specialists and tutors needing print-ready practice
