TERC: EMPower was suggested to us because it is apparently pretty popular here in PA and supports contextualized learning. They offer curriculum materials, professional development, help with school reform, research, and evaluation. Adult numeracy is listed as one of their areas of expertise.
In addition to the workshops they offer to introduce teachers to their EMPower math curriculum they also provide a model for Teachers Investigating Adult Numeracy (TIAN).
At the TIAN site, you can download bundles of classroom materials, here is an example of their materials to teach Number Sense: Flexibility and Fluency!
If you have been to a workshop, used the materials, or participated with TIAN, please comment about your experiences.
Nailed it!
