Abstract

The Waterford Early Math and Science Program is a computer-assisted instruction program that ensures individualized learning for kindergarten through first grade students. The Waterford curriculum was assigned to students in a school district in Indiana for the 2015-2016 school year. The Mobile Classroom: Math assessment was administered to students at the beginning, middle, and end of the school year to assess math skills across multiple strands. Analysis revealed statistically significant higher end of year scores on most assessment strands made by kindergarten and first grade students that used the Waterford Early Math and Science Program, indicating that Waterford curriculum improves early math skills.
