Early signs are that pupils really enjoy using the program, they like the characters and the successes they gain from the consistent practise and seeing their results improve.
I just wanted to say how fantastic I think SAMSON is... I am a parent and know very little about it but have a son in P7 at Troqueer Primary who has never “got” numbers and “hated maths”...! I found this difficult as i was taught arithmetic well and use “mental maths” every day at 40.... Since he has started SAMSON he has made huge progress with all aspects of mental maths - it’s quite unbelievable. I only wish he had benefitted from it sooner! He’s even enjoying numbers and their challenges now which is great. I’m looking forward to learning a bit more about the strategies and how parents can support the work at home soon. I think it’s a brilliant addition to kids education and just wanted to thank you very much! All the best, with kind regards. - Happy Parent.
Hope Scotland take SAMSON on and then start on the English market as education is so far behind Scotland.
I am getting faster at the Timed Challenge Sheets, addition, subtraction, multiplication and divide. They are easier now thanks to the Big Guy, step 1 step 2 and best friends 10 and 20.
