Suzanne- just a quick note on Everyday Math-you can email me off list if you want for more. Our district started using this program about 6 years ago- I've been here 3 years- and one thing I've noticed as an intervention teacher is this is the first district where we have more kids in intervention math classes than reading! The teachers complain the program moves too quickly and is too heavily based on reading skills. It does try to use real life problems, but the computation aspect of it just flies by and the slower kids never seem to catch up. I haven't heard any of our 2-5 teachers say they like the program...hope this helps in some way. Michelle 2-5 reading ais ny
