Description
Math isn't just about knowing the numbers—it's about executive functioning! ➕🧠
For many neurodivergent students, the barrier to math isn't the addition itself; it's remembering how to solve it and remembering the steps to complete the worksheet. This comprehensive Basic Addition (<20) Visual Toolkit removes the cognitive overload by giving students concrete, visual menus and checklists to empower their independence!
Because every student processes visual information differently, this resource includes THREE complete visual accessibility sets to meet the needs of your entire caseload.
📦 WHAT’S INCLUDED in The "Low Stimulus" Set:
- The "+ Methods" Bookmarks: A visual strategy menu! Reminds students of their options (Know it, Fingers, Number Line, Counters, Draw it) so they never get stuck staring at a blank page.
- The "+ Steps" Bookmarks: A 5-step executive functioning checklist for completing the problem (Look @ sign, Choose method, Numbers, Answer, Match/Check).
- Differentiated Visual Prompts: Every bookmark comes in 3 fading levels: Text-Only, Text + Icons, and Icons-Only.
- "Match" vs. "Check" Options: Accommodates both standard paper-pencil assessments AND alternate assessments (drag-and-drop/Velcro matching)!
- Ready-to-Use IEP Data Collection Sheet 📈: Pre-formatted with a Prompt Hierarchy Key (Independent, Visual, Verbal, Model, Physical) for accurate tracking.
👁️ 3 DIFFERENT VISUAL ACCESSIBILITY PROFILES:
- 1. The "Typical" Set: Bright, engaging, and colorful! Perfect for general education or standard visual support needs.
- 2. The "Low Stimulus" Set: Stark contrast with pure white backgrounds to eliminate visual interference. Perfect for students with ADHD, Autism, or easily distracted learners.
- 3. The "High Contrast / CVI" Set: Black backgrounds with bright text and color-tinted options! Designed specifically for Cortical Visual Impairment (CVI), Irlen Syndrome, and complex visual processing disorders.
🎯 PERFECT FOR:
- Special Education Resource Rooms & Inclusion Classrooms
- Alternate Assessment Prep
- Fading adult prompts and building math independence
💡 HOW TO USE:
Print, laminate, and tape the bookmarks to the corner of a student's desk or keep them in a math folder. Teach the student to reference their "+ Methods" menu when they get stuck, and use a dry-erase marker to check off their "+ Steps" as they work through their assignment!
