"District results have been tracked since 1998, and each year we have data to inform us about student's progress at each grade level. From the state NHEIAP results, use of Exemplars has paid off. Our students in grades three and six have consistently reported higher scores compared to the state results. This has held true from 1998..."

"I am a special education teacher and I have been using the math Exemplars with my students. They enjoy them and have actually asked to do them. I have noticed that with each problem we solve more and more students are trying to stretch their thinking so they can become 'Experts'".

"In 1999, only 28% of our 8th grade students met or exceeded state standards. After the introduction of Exemplars, in 2001, 56% of our 8th grade students met or exceeded the standards. In other words, we doubled the number of students passing the state test in the two-year time period."

"The reflection sheets that were completed after yesterday's search for problem solving were out of this world! The teachers love this product! They cannot believe what they have at their fingertips!"

"Anecdotal evidence suggests that teachers in classrooms utilizing Exemplars materials on a regular basis saw in their students not only improved mathematical thinking on a day-to-day basis, but an increased ability to understand standardized testing materials as well."
