“This curriculum has totally changed the approach to math. Math has become exciting, the story problems are wonderful examples of the concept and really bring relevance to the skills needed. My students are so much more excited about math and can’t wait to use the curriculum every day.”

“Love it, love to teach with it. Makes my job fun.”

“Excellent. Student engagement is infinitely better. I have previously reluctant students sharing their ideas. Students are involved in the math. Basically, it transforms math from a spectator sport to actually being a player on the court/field.”

“I have been so impressed with this program. It allows for so much discussion and debate. Students get passionate about their answer or their method to get the answer. I can identify misconceptions easily and know aspects that I need to be more clear on. As a teacher, you have moments when you get goosebumps when students really understand. I have had many of those moments listening to students talk about these MSM lessons. Empires has been an amazing program, especially when supporting my high ability and gifted learners. The simulations, worksheets, and clicker quizzes and great practice to choose from. I can fit and tailor students’ learning based on what they need from this program.”

“It shows math in a real world context, as well as  opportunities for students to work together and to fail safely. These features are built-in and on-demand and I do not have to re-invent the wheel with every lesson.”

“I’m inspired by what you’ve done. It’s a gift to teachers everywhere.”

“Personally, this is more than, “just some help” from you - this is a rescue ship in a tidal wave which wiped us out. Our entire department has all agreed that MidSchoolMath is by far the best option for enrichment and extension for our students.”

“I love that my students think more and differently about math concepts than they have in the past.”

“The core curriculum is put together in a way that makes sense and is easy to use from a teacher stand point. More importantly, it engages students of all levels as they solve and gain confidence in their ability that they can understand math.”

“It’s made me really work at allowing students to grapple longer than I normally would have. It’s helped me to not scaffold quite as quickly. They hated me in the beginning, but they are starting to see the changes. MAPS scores have increased and they are starting to buy in.”
