An excellent program, and one I hope that spreads into more elementary classrooms. I'm curious though - all of our middle schools have specialized math classes.. How does the accelerated math program work in your middle school? Is it part of a remedial math program, or ???

I teach in a tiny school in a rural state. My husband and I are the entire "Math Department!" We use the program as our curriculum in 5th through 8th grade. I have taught Math and remedial Math for 25 years and am very much old school when in comes to memorizing facts, etc. I have seen fads come and go in education, so I was reluctant to try this program at first. I am very pleased with the results thus far. The students love the program which helps tremendously.
