Neurodiverse Numeracy Activity Booklet | Grades K–5
Build stronger numeracy skills, confidence, and flexible thinking with an activity booklet designed for the many different ways children learn.
The Neurodiverse Numeracy Activity Booklet is designed for students in Kindergarten through Grade 5, with particular consideration for learners with ADHD, dyslexia, autism, executive-function challenges, learning disabilities, or students who simply benefit from a more visual and hands-on approach to math.
Rather than relying on repetitive worksheets, the activities encourage children to see, touch, notice, compare, organize, problem-solve, and talk about their thinking while strengthening foundational numeracy skills.
Skills Supported
Activities help students develop and practice:
Number sense and number recognition
Counting and quantity
Subitizing and visual number representations
Comparing and ordering numbers
Addition and subtraction concepts
Patterns and sequencing
Shapes and spatial reasoning
Matching and visual discrimination
Problem-solving and flexible thinking
Attention, working memory and following directions
Mathematical confidence and perseverance
A Neurodiversity-Affirming Approach
This booklet isn't about completing every page perfectly or as quickly as possible. Different learners may approach the same activity in different ways - and that's part of the learning.
Parents and teachers can adapt the activities, use manipulatives, read instructions aloud, add movement, allow breaks, talk through strategies, or revisit activities as often as needed.
Use it for 5–15 minutes at a time, as a warm-up, learning centre, intervention activity, homeschool resource, tutoring tool, early-finisher activity, or simply some extra numeracy practice at home.
