[spatial] [dyslexia]

a condition often attributed to but not always caused by lack of sleep, in which the sufferer misplaces objects by substituting one item with another unconsciously, due to a short attention span and/or attempting too many tasks at once, resulting in confusion, consternation and at times deprivation until the item is found.

Throwing the full packet of cigarettes into the trash instead of the empty lighter you were intending to discard is a good example of spatial dyslexia.

Spatial Structuring

When students exercise shape flexibility in solving a math problem to enhance their understanding, or to figure out any hidden or nonobvious relationship between the known and unknown quantities, such as moving and rearranging parts of a bar model drawing or/and adding dotted lines to a model diagram.

It’s not surprising that those who practice spatial structuring stand a higher chance of solving a word problem when using the “draw a diagram” strategy than their peers who don’t.
