Episode 17 | Why Your Students Need a Math Fact Fluency Tracker
Episode description
In the last episode, I shared some strategies to help you build math fact fluency in your students. Definitely go back and check out Episode 16 if you haven't already! And if you're brand new to math fact fluency, check out episode 15, where I dive in to exactly what math fact fluency is, and why it's so important.
In this episode, I'm sharing why I believe that every upper elementary students needs to use a math fact fluency tracker. Hint: it's about SO MUCH MORE than facts! I also share about the winning qualities of a good math fact fluency tracker, as well as where you can find one that I've made and listed in my TeachersPayTeachers store.
Today's Takeaways
- Having students track their own data is empowering for them
- When students track their own math fact fluency, they learn how to set goals and make action plans
- Have students apply what they're learning and build conceptual understanding BEFORE you move to memorization
- Not all math fact fluency trackers are made equally
