Editorial Reviews

[This] systematic, theory-based, and empirically tested program will help to improve the quantitative competencies of young children who would otherwise be disadvantaged throughout their schooling.

David C. Geary

Provides a solid foundation for developing a rich understanding of mathematics. Rigorous research conducted on Number Sense Interventions shows the promise of the program for positively impacting student mathematics achievement.

Research Associate, Center on Teaching and Learning, University of Oregon - Ben Clarke

This is the kind of intervention support that teachers need to effectively address the needs of students with mathematics learning difficulties. It is a welcome addition to educators providing intensive multi-tiered mathematics instruction."

Professor, Department of Special Education, University of South Florida - David Allsopp

A first-rate, comprehensive, and evidence-based suite of number sense interventions that—if implemented as per the guidelines—will surely yield noticeable improvements in young children’s knowledge of and proficiency with numbers, number relations, and number operations.

University of Virginia - Daniel B. Berch

A systematic, digit-by-digit introduction to numbers—which, once mastered, should provide a firm foundation for all elementary mathematics.

co-author, Number Sense and Number Nonsense: Understanding the Challenges of Learning Math - Nancy Krasa

An absolute MUST resource book . . . A wonderful collection of 24 evidence-based interventions to build children’s competencies with numbers.

Associate Professor of Mathematics Education, Penn State Harrisburg - Jane M. Wilburne

“Clear and are easy to administer, even for a novice teacher. The intervention strategies are well-grounded in research and practice, and the activities are engaging.”

Sally Moomaw
