The aim of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of fine motor skills training on the the Selective attention and visual perception of Sabzevar primary school students with math disabilities in 2017. Semiexperimental pretest - posttest with control group was used for this study. 34 students with math disabilities of primary school were randomly selected and replaced in two groups (experimental group, 17 people and control group, 17 people). After conducting the pre-test, Stroop Color - Word test (1935) and Frostig Developmental test of Visual Perception (1963) were done. The experimental group received fine motor skills training during Fifteen 40 minutes sessions (Two sessions per week), and then the post-test was conducted. Data obtained were compared using covariance analysis. The results showed that fine motor skills training increases the selective attention and visual perception. Accordingly, fine motor skills training is an effective intervention program for helping primary school students with math disabilities.
