Jun 30, 2008 - What can I say about Everyday Mathematics? hmm...Maybe that itDOESN'T WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I was able to survive through it relatively unscathed, but I know some high school students who CAN'T DO LONG DIVISION because E.M. screwed them up with all these RIDICULOUS methods.Don't believe the propaganda, if you have even part of a brain cell in your head, and you have E.M. in your district, GET IT OUT! BEFORE IT RUINS YOUR KIDS!
