First in Math is a program that JCS used last year as a free trial. This year, we have been given a one month trial for the program. I have sent the information to all 2-5 teachers (and if you need me to send the email again let me know!). Please register, try out the program, and let me know what you think. I really just want to know if this is something you think is worth spending money on. It is mainly for math fluency, but there are word problems under the "Know and Show" section. From what I can see, and after talking to some teachers who used it last year, 5th grade may be a group that only uses it for remediation. Your higher kids may enjoy it, but it won't challenge them. Second through fourth grade should be able to find things for all of your students. There may be a few students who aren't as challenged with it in fourth, but they would still enjoy the competition. At the end of the month, I will send you an email again asking what you thought of the program. I know things are crazy and ya'll have a million things to do, but if you get a chance take a look at it! I really think it is something your students will enjoy!
