Abstract: "Scott Foresman-Addison Wesley Elementary Mathematics" is a core curriculum for students at all ability levels in prekindergarten through grade 6. The program supports students' understanding of key math concepts and skills and covers a range of mathematical content across grades. The What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) reviewed 12 studies on "Scott Foresman-Addison Wesley Elementary Mathematics" for elementary students. Two of these studies meet WWC evidence standards; one study meets WWC evidence standards with reservations; the remaining nine studies do not meet either WWC evidence standards or eligibility screens. Based on the three studies, the WWC found mixed effects in mathematics achievement for elementary students. Appendices include: (1) Study characteristics; (2) Outcome measures for the mathematics achievement domain; (3) Summary of findings included in the rating for the mathematics achievement domain; (4) Summary of subgroup findings for the mathematics achievement domain; and (5) "Scott Foresman-Addison Wesley Elementary Mathematics" rating for the mathematics achievement domain.
