Read the final report from a large-scale, rigorous study examining how four math curricula affect achievement across two years—from first through second grades. The curricula were (1) Investigations in Number, Data, and Space; (2) Math Expressions; (3) Saxon Math; and (4) Scott Foresman-Addison Wesley Mathematics.
