Another News Article for Parents

In class we have been using Jump Math materials.  I have used them for a few years and I really love how it works.  The advantages are these:

1. It lets the students have confidence.
2. It has the students solve smaller problems.
3. Everyone gets it (so everyone is learning).
4. Students end up doing, and learning more Math.

There have been many articles published like the one in the National Post saying that current methods are failing students.  (Read here.)

Here is a report on how Jump Math fared in a trial. (Read here.)

In the past 2 months I have already seen a change in many of the students' confidence and competence in Math.
