FASTT Math has been instrumental in removing our schools from School Improvement for Math. Our high stakes testing has shown remarkable improvement after the first year of implementation at Wetumpka Intermediate School and Holtville Elementary School.

From the Technology Specialist point of view, FASTT Math was one of the easiest programs to implement. From managing the classes, creating assignments and running reports, the program is very intuitive.
Classroom teachers have indicated that students find the program engaging and enjoy the games. Unlocking bonus features and tracking their improvement with the “Fact Grid” are big motivators.
The program consistently monitors the students’ rate and accuracy with their math facts. It keeps them fluent with the facts they know while at the same time challenging them on new facts. Most students spend less then ten minutes to complete a lesson. This enables the opportunity for all students to have frequent access.

As a third grade teacher I am faced at the beginning of each school year with students who have not mastered their basic addition and subtraction facts. With the implementation of FASTT Math this year at our school, I have a wonderful program at my disposal. The individualized nature of FASTT Math is so valuable in planning a program for each student. The math fact fluency growth thus far has been amazing and easily tracked by the many reports available with the program. The reports are also a key asset in parent conferences. My students can’t wait to have their FASTT Math time each day.

FASTT Math exceeded our expectations! It motivated our students to learn their facts- they loved it! It amazed us that the students are as excited about the program today as they were when they started it last fall. It energized our math instruction - we can now focus on concepts and not just computation. It supplied us with the progress monitoring data we needed for fluency.

FASTT Math has motivated our students to master the material and move to new levels quickly. They are so excited to be able to see their own progress, and to know exactly where they continue to need extra help. The teachers have said that the students are excited and eager to work with FASTT Math each day, and are constantly asking for permission to go to the computers.

Everyone at our school is passionate about FASTT Math. Teachers relate that students are rapidly increasing their math fact fluency in just ten fun-filled minutes daily. The reporting features make student progress simple to monitor and are easily understood by parents. Best of all, our students can’t get enough FASTT Math. In fact, given the choice I’d bet that our students would opt for FASTT Math over recess.

FASTT Math has positively impacted our students and teachers by helping students learn and retain their facts with a systematic and fun approach while teachers have quick, easy access to performance and usage results which gives them immediate data about each student's progress. Students and teachers alike are noticing a big improvement in the number of facts known and the fast recall of those facts in the classroom. Students can't wait to get to the computer lab and do FASTT Math!
