What is multisensory teaching?

 

Multisensory teaching is an educational approach that engages multiple senses to enhance learning.

Multisensory teaching in math is particularly effective for students with dyscalculia as it involves using visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile elements to teach math concepts. By incorporating tools such as manipulatives (like blocks or beads), visual aids (like charts or diagrams), auditory cues (like verbal instructions or songs), and hands-on activities, students can better understand and retain mathematical concepts. This approach helps bridge the gap between abstract math and tangible experiences, making math more accessible and less intimidating for students who learn differently.
