Technology Tools for Visual Spatial or Motor Control Difficulties!

In my last post, I listed some awesome educational applications that can help automaticity and fluency in math. Now I will be focusing on technology tools that can help students with visual-spatial or motor control difficulties.

MathPad
- allows students to use a computer like a pencil and paper with a talking math worksheet. Also, a speech output option!
-Students with fine motor can use the click of a mouse or tap of a keyboard.

Virtual Pencil
- allows access to all types of math concepts without using a pencil and paper.
- designed to help students who can's operate a regular pencil.


Number Navigator
- a free program!
- Customizable options for font sizes, colors, etc!
- math processor to solve basic math problems and they can be entered

 

 

I didn't know that there were these programs that can replace pencils in ways like this! I think this picture tells how math can become for students with special needs...fun!

 

Any ways you create a better math environment for any of your students?
