Visual Approach Makes Independent Practice a Breeze

My Take

ST Math is invaluable to the students in my school division because the instruction is primarily visual. Students with limited vocabulary and below grade level reading can still access grade level math instruction using this program. The format is more like a video game than math instruction, so it is engaging. The data provided helps me to identify students who still need some help. I think on demand audio instructions might be helpful for students working on higher math skills. Since the program is web-based, it can be included with other work sent home for students who are sick. Also, since little teacher interaction is necessary while students use it, it can be left in the plans for substitutes.
