What does this activity train?

This worksheet trains the selective attention and working memory.

This activity is based on working on selective attention through a cancellation task with counting.

The elements will become increasingly similar to each other as the difficulty level increases. In this way, the user has to discriminate some stimuli from others while keeping track of how many they have already marked. This latter aspect also engages working memory, because otherwise they will lose track of how many marked elements they have.
