Just back from K classroom visits in Chichester. Excellent K-6 implementation of SpringMath taking their PSSA scores up. I'm not surprised by these results but seeing them never gets old. Here's grade 3 & 4, percent proficient before (orange) and after (blue) SpringMath. Holly Korbey
I was surprised to see this in Edutopia—pleasantly surprised. Then I saw it was by Holly Korbey and it made more sense. Worth your time.
Such an amazing time in Chichester, PA seeing SpringMath classwide math intervention in kindergarten. This district has seen math performance soar K-6. 😍 Sourcewell Technology
Early adopter of SpringMath- Dr. John Humphries leading the way with some of the strongest growth in WI in a district he brought it to (gains in % proficient on year-end state test). Here he is talking about his work. vimeo.com/334030611 Holly Nicholls Sourcewell Technology

Explicit, systematic teaching works best in math (not just reading). Evidence is weak for DIY learning, such as 'productive struggle,' writes Holly Korbey in Bell Ringer.

Excited to see my colleague Nicole Bucka (she/her), one of the authors of this excellent guide to evidence-based math instruction ies.ed.gov/ncee/wwc/Pract…
I could not be more proud of our assessments in K-8 math. We have the strongest rated kindergarten measures on the NCII tools chart & strongest possible ratings at all grade levels. Our measures are novel and rigorous and effectively drive MTSS for math. news.sourcewell-mn.gov/springmath-rec…
