How often have you thought (or said), “I wish I knew how to teach math facts so that my students learn them and really remember them instead of just memorizing something for a test,” when talking about teaching math? For elementary learners, every math teacher works to build fluency as part of instruction, but what are the key principles to build fact fluency and how can you implement them? What’s essential in the strategies you choose and the approach you take to practice the road to fluency?

In the first part of this four-part edWebinar series, Sara Delano Moore, Ph.D. shares principles and strategies for putting research into action as you develop knowledge about fact fluency, the principles behind it, and strategies for building a foundation in addition and subtraction facts for your classroom. You’ll leave this session with practical knowledge in these areas:

  • Understanding the key principles for building fact fluency among your students
  • Understanding what the count on strategy is and how to use it with your students
  • Having a plan to extend this strategy to further addition and subtraction fluency

Join Sara for part one of Fact Fluency Boot Camp so you can foster fact fluency with addition and subtraction strategies. This recorded edWebinar is of interest to PreK through elementary teachers and school and district leaders.

Part 2: Fact Fluency Boot Camp: Addition and Subtraction Strategies
Part 3: Fact Fluency Boot Camp: Fact Fluency Principles and Multiplication and Division Strategies
Part 4: Fact Fluency Boot Camp: Multiplication and Division Strategies; Tying It All Together
