[quote=Anonymous]I am all for using whatever means works for individual students. If ST Math is helpful for 25% of the population then go ahead and use it for that group of kids. But stop assigning it for the kids who are able to do that work and don't need that type of reinforcement. That is, of course, hard to do because we don't like to group kids and so all the kids have to use the same materials because some kids would fee bad that not everyone is using ST Math or flash cards or whatever they are using. My kid who is in Advanced Math, scores a perfect or near perfect score on the math SOL every year, and scores above the year end mark on every math iReady does not need ST Math. He really doesn't need it as homework. And yes, we make him do it because we want him to develop the mind set that doing homework is a requirement for when the math homework that is sent home is useful. [/quote]
