A WORD TO ALL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PRINCIPALS AND MATH HEADS OF SCHOOL DISTRICTS:

America is in an educational crisis. Twenty years ago we were number 1 in the world in education. Today we are 24th in math in the world, yet we spend more money on education than any other nation.

We must take a look at WHAT we are teaching and HOW we are teaching math, especially in our elementary classrooms. Here is where a strong foundation is laid that empowers and enables students to continue on into higher levels of math in upper elementary and then into middle school and high school. IT STARTS WITH THE BASIC FACTS! It gets no more complicated than that! It is the mastery of the facts that has been neglected as unimportant. This must be turned around. Mad Dog Math teaches the basic facts in a fun, challenging, motivating, and exciting way that every child will love.

It was developed by a desperate classroom teacher and refined into a powerful system that any school or school district can successfully implement.

It is recommended that Mad Dog Math be used in every Kindergarten through 6th grade classroom the first year it is adopted. Once your school or district has used it for several consecutive years, then continue implementing it in Kindergarten through 4th grade. An after-school Mad Dog Math program would then be necessary for all your new 5th and 6th graders who are not fluent in their facts.

It’s as simple as that. We want our students to LOVE math and excel at it. It, like reading, is a necessary life skill. Mad Dog Math will change the hearts of our students toward math for a life time. Our students deserve it!
