For example,
the math program in MINDsprinting includes plenty of practice
items for each work unit. Working on various items can easily reveal
a childs
weaknesses in learning and with practice the child can minimize errors
and accomplish mastery learning in the weak area. Consequently, the
approach taken in MINDsprinting will ensure optimal comprehension
and retention of concepts as well as skills, establishing the strongest
possible foundation for more advanced materials.

As an educator
who has observed many a learner who struggles with basic computation
skills, this highly accessible program allows for the kind of drill
and practice needed to master or imprint number sense.

I
see how MINDsprinting would benefit enhanced math and
reading skills for all my students. In the math segment, I like
the program's
focus on the foundational patterns and structures. The program
groups related functions like multiplication and division, and
stresses over learning of specific skills so these functions are
fully understood and become automatic. This frees up students to
more easily apply these automatic computational skills
to solve problems.

[MINDsprinting's]
required practice of basic math skills properly pursues mastery.
