Formative Loop has been extremely positive with math skills development! There are some 3rd grade skills (such as expanded notation) that require teaching to mastery, which is difficult to fit into a math scope-and-sequence that requires us to keep moving. Formative Loop makes it possible to allow each student to work at their own pace on these foundational mathematical skills. It's the best!
