Symbolic Transcoding Dot Numeral Card Pack

Dual-coded symbolic transcoding game cards dot-to-numeral pack for primary and secondary maths SEN TAs to bridge visual dots and numerals.RESOURCE OVERVIEW

RESOURCE OVERVIEW
Bridge the critical gap between concrete quantity awareness and abstract written numbers with this dual-coded symbolic transcoding game card pack. Specially engineered for primary and secondary SEN teaching assistants, intervention leads, and maths teachers, this resource targets the neurodevelopmental process of translating visual dot arrays directly into symbolic numerals. Aligned with evidence-based dyscalculia intervention research, it systematically trains working memory and visual translation skills through low-stakes, structured game mechanics.
