Numeracy Related Activities and difficulties with Motivation
Remember, disability is a highly individualised experience. People with the same disability may have very different capabilities and/or needs, so it is always best to discuss any adaptations to practice, the environment or equipment directly with the disabled person themselves rather than making assumptions about what adjustments may be suitable.
It is not uncommon for people, non disabled and those with disabilities, to have some anxiety about numeracy related learning activities. Clearly, is someone is anxious about their ability; this will have a negative impact on their motivation.
It is vital that the teacher explains the purpose and benefits of numeracy - that it is an essential skill for living. The teacher should pitch the tasks at the right level for the individual and, if possible, should include fun activities and/or games to make the taught sessions appealing and reduce anxiety.
