Feedback on SRA Connecting Math Concepts Program for ADHD student

Posted in

My grandson is 11 years old and will be going to 6th grade in Sep 2009. He's been lagging in math and the school has been using Everyday Math Program. HIs performance level varies and is between 2nd-4th grade; really deficient in knowing basic math facts. Everyday Math jumps around too much and the material is just glossed over so my grandson doesn't seem to grasp the basic math facts or seem to make sense of or understand math. I've requested a change in curriculum via his IEPand they will use SRA Connecting Math Conepts Program to help him gain mastery and develop an understanding of math. Does anyone have experience with this program and can offer any information, guidance, tips, etc. ? Thanks

I haven't tried either personally, but I have read good reports from other users who have tried SRA direct instruction for math and Saxon Math. Here is a digest of threads that addressed SRA Math from the SchwabLearning archives:
