Action research from qualitative research methods has been adopted in the study. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis technique. After learning the method of collecting with the help of a scenario developed by the researcher, it was determined that student achieved more than 90 % on teaching basic addition process and subtraction process. Gains have been actualized by an illiterate student with math learning difficulties with over 90 % success in 63 lessons. Social validity data were collected through observation and interviews to identify strengths or weaknesses and changes occurring in student work. As a result of the studies, it has been determined that the student gain self-confidence by enjoying her sense of accomplishment.en_US
