This Seattle-based organization is so dedicated to helping students achieve in math that they've created a free web program for students, teachers and parents. We learned about it from Martha Leslie who says, "It is just for math facts, and it allows you to set it up so that the next student's name comes up automatically so the kids can go get the next learner. Plus, it allows the student to look and see if the next student is absent or busy, click a button to get the next student. I hope that made some sense. Anyway, I've used it now for two months, and it works really well for the independent math facts."

Participants included division-level leaders, mathematics supervisors, instructional supervisors, professional development personnel, and building administrators. "

This is a blog post about a strategy used to incorporate stations into math. The fact that this teacher mentions that they use Investigations, and that she regards it as the Daily 5 for math caught my attention.
