Lucy Gray on 11 Dec 09D.C. teachers and administrators say the improvement in NAEP scores is attributable in part to the use of Everyday Mathematics, a K-6 curriculum Janey introduced in the District in 2005. Everyday Mathematics focuses on using a student's experiences, encouraging the use of games and hands-on work rooted in real-life situations. Students also are encouraged to explain and discuss their reasoning in their own words.
