(Butterworth, B. 2019, p.2)

It is characterized by a students impaired mathematical abilities which make it difficult to learn and apply mathematics skills. Students struggle with number sense, fact and calculation and mathematical reasoning (Bryant, Bryant, & Smith, pp. 359-360).]]> 2019-06-04 00:45:53 UTC https://padlet.com/shannon_cuddy/dmqxe1brye3v/wish/365448259 shannon_cuddy https://padlet.com/shannon_cuddy/dmqxe1brye3v/wish/365452521 - Lacks an intuitive sense of numbers (does not know which is larger or smaller).
-Unable to recognize number patterns
-Difficulty estimating answers
-Will confuse similar looking numbers such as 3 and 8 or 6 and 9.
-Reverse numbers, for example 350 might become 305.
-No confidence in mathematical answers
-Extreme difficulty learning times tables
-Cannot do mental arithmetic
-Problems remembering numerical facts
-Inability to see connections with "fact families" such as 3+5=8 and 5+3=8
-Difficulty remembering mathematical procedures and may have to keep relearning them.
-Not sure whether a procedure will make the answer smaller or bigger
-Not easily able to transfer skills to solving different sets of problems
-Inclined to panic and go blank when faced with word problems with difficulty to working out what a question is asking
-Misreads math symbols
-Difficulty remembering numbers during calculations
-Difficulty remembering sequences of numbers
- Difficulty remembering scores or moves in a strategic game game.
-Graphical representation, interpretation and creation will be extremely difficult
-Poor organizational skills
-Extremely emotional responses when asked to perform math skills in front of peers. Will have extreme anxiety and use avoidance tactics in an effort to avoid math

2) Calcularis includes multiple games in a hierarchical structure 
3) Intervention works well with students with DD when there is a direct connection to the student's specific learning styles.
4) Students are encouraged to practice their number association with story based games at home for controlled amounts each day.
5) Using visuals and tangibles tend to help students with DD better grasp the mathematical concepts at hand.

This study first estimated the propor­tion of children who were dyscalculic. This study had every child (11,562) from 6.9 to 17.3 in one district of Havana undergo a curriculum-based group-administered standardized test each school year. 

Of these, 1,966 were tested individually using a specially designed computerized “basic numerical battery” (BNB) comprising measures of efficiency that combined accuracy and speed in basic mathematical skills.

Of the 1,966 tested, 9.4% were classified as Arithmetic Dysfluent (AD), 4.5% were classified as having a Core Deficit based on their performance on dot enumeration and 3.4% were classified as Developmental Dyscalculic (DD).

Cuba's government sought to look into this issue with further testing. The Cuban National Survey of Learning Disabilities utilized 240 specialists (psychologists, speech therapists, psychiatrists, and teachers) to carry out the individual testing on a representative sample of over 16,000 children from Grades 3 to 6 from 270 schools across Cuba. This study confirmed the prevalence estimate of 3– 4% of the population of students with dyscalculia.

Other estimates suggest a prevalence of dyscalculia using a number sense as well as a calculation criterion is somewhere between 3.5% and 7% of the population.
