Similar to the CRT results, the 
implementation of the Singapore Math 
curriculum did not negatively affect the ITBS 
achievement scores. Table 3 reveals the 
elevating ITBS mean percentile ranking in 
mathematics for grades 2-5 from 2006-2009:

Relating the positive CRT and ITBS 
student achievement results to O’Donnell’s 
curriculum-in-use construct suggests the 
implementation of the new curriculum may have 
contributed to an increase in standardized test 
results. Determining the measures that may have 
contributed to these academic results as well as 
confounding factors implementing the new 
curriculum identified through surveys, journals, 
interviews, and observation data provide deeper 
insights into teachers’ perceptions and practices 
delivering the new mathematics curriculum.
Findings 
A strong claim can be made that the 
Singapore Math curriculum positively impacts 
student learning after the first and second year as 
revealed in the CRT and ITBS tests results. This 
finding begins to answer the second research 
question related to student learning of 
mathematics but does not, however, provide a 
more nuanced understanding into the research 
question concerning teachers’ confidence, 
practices, and perceptions implementing the new 
mathematics curriculum. O’Donnell’s (2008) 
framework offers a more meaningful analysis of 
the teachers’ successes and struggles delivering 
the new mathematics program by providing 
multiple constructs for evaluating the effective 
implementation of a new curriculum. Taken 
together, applying O’Donnell’s four constructs to 
the collected data in Table 4, reveals a curriculum 
that was implemented with moderately strong 
fidelity between 2008 and 2010:
