Mathematics Navigator



large, readable version Not quite sure what this is yet; came in an ASCD SmartBrief Niki Hayes forwarded. Seems to be a summer school close-the-gaps program.

I think the conclusion is obvious.

Declining competency means we have to start school earlier. That's gotta be it. Formal math education for 3 year olds.

Don't even joke about that, Myrtle.

Connecticut is always threatening to start mandatory preschool and mandatory full day kindergarten.

If my kids had been in full day kindergarten they would have never learned to read.

The only reading instruction they ever got was at home.

Absolutely.

Our middle school principal clearly believes (or at least suggested to me that he believes) that the reason KIPP produces far greater math learning than our school is that the KIPP kids attend school for more hours in the day and more days in the year.
