Daily Practice

Fluently knowing the standard multiplication facts is a very important foundation when doing all kinds of math such as division, fractions, and algebra. 

This year your child will practice math facts daily with the goal of memorizing them.

Your child will take 2 timed math facts tests for homework each night.  They will begin by mastering 100 problems in 3 minutes. Once that is mastered, the goal is to move to 2 minutes, and then finally work on a 1 minute goal.

When practicing, the student should be timed.

Then, when the time is up, the student should STOP. He/she should not finish all 100 problems unless it can be done within the time goal.

The form to fill out and sign is below the math facts practice link. Please print out and fill out each week. This should be emailed to me each MONDAY.

We will all take a math facts test at school once a week.

This may be suspended during long distance learning. Stay tuned.

Use the link below to generate math facts to print.

The settings chosen should be:

• multiplication
• 100 problems
• minimum multiplicand is 0
• maximum multiplicand is 9
• number of columns is 10
• orientation is vertical
• font size your choice - 16 is good

This is an important reminder.

You will  do TWO separate sheets every school day.

You do NOT send them to me every day.

You fill out the Practice Log and get your mom or dad to sign it each day.

On MONDAY you send me a picture of your Practice Log all filled out and with parent signatures.

You may also send in your math facts pages but as long as your parents saw it, you don't have to send those to me.
