DYSCALCULIA

​

I followed the Davis Dyslexia Correction method which is based on the idea that children with dyscalculia are “picture thinkers”, whose strengths lie in visual, tactile and spatial perception. Children that struggle with the manipulation of numbers can touch and visualise a number with this origami series.

​

Sensory techniques exist to help children manage basic math concepts. By using form and touch, this piece enables children to memorise the contours of a number, associating the word of the number to its symbol.

​

As seen with the posters, every number from 0 to 9 can be folded into its own shape. 

​

There is even a website so that you can buy the posters, and there's also a link so that you can learn how to fold each poster individually.
