“I am writing to express my appreciation for your program, “Word Problems Made Easy.” My district’s entire
special education staff received training in this program a little over one year ago. It has been implemented
at all grade levels and is making an impact on our state testing results in math and in student progress in the
regular math class. The simple strategies this program utilizes have assisted our students in understanding how
to read a word problem and determine what process is needed in order to solve the problem. We have found
this systematic program to be invaluable to our students and teachers. We would recommend the program to
any district struggling to teach all students to solve word problems.”

- Mastering Math Facts — Customer Favorite!
- Word Problems Made Easy
“I went to the “Mastering Math Facts” seminar last March and began to use the program immediately. I raved about
the program and offered a training to a very few staff members that were interested. Since it was so late in the
school year only one other teacher decided to try it. Both of us were very impressed with how well the students
were improving in learning their facts. This year every teacher in the building attended the training and began to
implement the program. We purchased the site license, which made it very easy for everyone to make copies and
began to work. We really like that it teaches the students only 3-4 facts at a time. We look forward to seeing an
increase in our math scores due to mastery of the facts.”

The Importance of
Understanding
Place Value
Place value is crucial to counting
large numbers efficiently. Our decimal
system is a base ten numeral system.
We assign place value from right to left
— ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten
thousands, hundred thousands, millions
and so forth. Place values allow the
decimal system to represent large
numbers with a minimum of figures.
We are also available for
districtwide training!
