Abstract
The research confi rms that certain preverbal couting is noticeable as early as the first months of children's lives and can be even observed in animals. It is further apparent that it is, with certain amount of probability, possible to trace future problems with mathematics even prior to the start of compulsory school education and thus before children come in contact with formal mathematics education.
It is a preschool age, in which pre-mathematical skills and abilities are being developed to a point when we can record and assess them. The review study is dedicated to the possibilities of early identifi cation of the mathematical learning disability known as developmental dyscalculia.
