Reviews of TERC: Investigations in Number, Data, and Space. Basic Information and Introduction Investigations in Number, Data, and Space is a K-5 curriculum developed by TERC Inc., Cambridge, MA, and marketed through Pearson Scott Foresman (and previously by Scott Foresman - Addison Wesley and by Dale Seymour).
The TERC Investigations Project Director is Susan Jo Russell and the project web site is www.terc.edu/investigations/. Pearson Scott Foresman has a Teacher Resources page for the Investigations curriculum. TERC: Investigations in Number, Data, and Space is marketed (in 2002) as whole classroom units. The curriculum does not come with traditional student textbooks and workbooks. Content Reviews 2008 TERC Math vs. 2008 National Math Panel Recommendations, by Bill Quirk, April, 2008.

What's the basis for your answer? Is it from personal experience as a student, comments made by a teacher or administrator, or media reports on the "math wars" between traditional and progressive educators? It's a safe bet that most folks will say "basic skills" mean "knowing how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide correctly. " It's an equally sure bet that many teachers trained in the progressive, whole-math approach will shudder at the thought of having to use what they consider traditional methods to teach basic skills—those boring, rote, repetitious activities they label "drill and kill" (called "drill and skill" by traditionalists).
Basic skills have been scorned and systematically dismissed as a valuable part of learning in mathematics by progressives for almost 40 years. Kimberly S.
