Children exhibit difficulties in mathematics for a number of reasons. Some children struggle to efficiently encode verbal and visual information. This could impede a child’s registration of information in memory and impact the integration of the information needed to form concepts. In addition, difficulties with the processing of visual-spatial information could hinder a child’s ability to create mental representations to support mathematical problem solving.
Children need to grasp ideas that provide a foundation for subsequent learning and support a variety of tasks and procedures that go beyond a single activity.
