Semple Math - Simply Unforgettable

Still below grade level but they are catching up and getting closer to grade level.

8. How do you rate the overall attitude, outlook and self-esteem of each student on a scale of 1 - 5, 1 being the lowest score? Comments are welcome.

9. How does the portion of Semple Math you have now seen compare to any "non-Semple" learning materials you have used in the past? (Please do not identify and materials and programs by name.)

Semple Math works really well for my special population of students. In past schools I used different programs + would try and teach basic addition + subtraction all year and by the end some students still couldn't do it, but with Semple I have experienced success in just a few months.

10. Has any standardized or local testing been used as part of this Challenge? If so, please explain the means of assessment and share your findings with consideration for student privacy.

Not Applicable

11. Would you recommend this program to other educators? Why or why not?

Yes, it is a good program for students that need basic facts. The mnemonic clues really help the facts stick for easy recall.

12. Should we sponsor a second round of the Challenge and for the purpose of sharing our Times Tables Kit?

Yes!

Jan Semple (Author) : Alison, that is a strong start! Well done! I am looking forward to your feedback later in the year. Thank you for participating in our Challenge.
