TouchMath follows research-based best practices. A 2008 study found that using the program increases computation skills through carefully included engagement, feedback and multisensory methods.
The TouchMath program employs manipulative materials, modeling, drawings, and pictures to help students achieve abstract mathematical thinking.
TouchMath is standards-based and aligned to current curriculum standards with a concentration on Focus, Coherence, Application, and Modeling within developmentally appropriate learning trajectories.
TouchMath products can be used with students on a variety of tiers, including levels 1, 2, and 3 of the IDEA RtI framework. All aimed at early intervention to prevent students from falling behind.
TouchMath has embedded the Standards of Mathematical Practice into the program, which alleviates strain on working memory to keep students focused on the content task at hand.
TouchMath is closely tied to visualization strategies in mathematics – the multisensory CRA approach makes critical math concepts appealing and accessible for all students.
TouchMath supports a wide range of learners: general education, special education (mainstreamed and resource room), intervention, remediation, ELL’s, and students performing above or below grade level.

TouchMath alleviates strain on working memory and to keep students focused on the content task at hand.
TouchMath helps educators with visualization in the math classroom, supported by all current state curriculum standards, Mathematical Progressions, Universal Design for Learning, C-R-A Continuum, and neuroscience research.
TouchMath supports a wide range of learners: general education, special education (mainstreamed and resource room), intervention, remediation, English Language Learners (ELL’s), and students performing above or below grade level.
The data indicates that TouchMath is a more effective method for teaching students with mild learning disabilities.
Presents the ways that TouchMath fosters transition to more advanced skills and to traditional curriculum.
Results indicated that the TouchMath strategy was more effective and efficient for single-digit addition problems.
