Fluency in math doesn’t just happen; it is a well-planned journey. In this book, you’ll find practical strategies and activities for teaching your elementary students basic multiplication and division. The authors lay out the basic framework for building math fluency using a cycle of engagement (concrete, pictorial, abstract) and provide a multitude of examples illustrating the strategies in action. You’ll learn how to help students to model their thinking with a variety of tools; keep students engaged through games, poems, songs, and technology; assess student development to facilitate active and continuous learning; implement distributed practices throughout the year; and boost parental involvement so that students remain encouraged even as material becomes more complex. A final chapter devoted to action plans will help you put these strategies into practice in your classroom right away. Most importantly, you’ll open the door to deep and lasting math fluency.

This practical resource offers a classroom-tested framework for secondary math teachers to support students who struggle. Teachers will explore an often-overlooked piece of the math achievement puzzle: the gatekeeping cycles of mathematics and the importance of teachers' own expectations of students. The immediately applicable strategies in this book, developed through the author’s work as a math intervention teacher, intervention specialist, and instructional coach, will give teachers the tools to help students overcome math anxiety, retention struggles, and even apathy. Beginning with a deep dive into the gatekeeping cycles to help teachers better understand their students who struggle, the book then walks teachers through the five-part B.R.E.A.K. itTM Math Intervention Framework: Build Community, Routines to Boost Confidence, Engage Every Student, Advance Your Expectations, Know Students’ Level of Understanding. Educational research, personal anecdotes from the author’s own classroom, and examples from case study teachers are woven into each chapter, leading to clear action items, planning strategies, and best practices that are accessible enough to accommodate all grade levels and schedules. The framework and activities in this book enable teachers to help students overcome math anxiety, create a safe math environment for 6–12 students, and ultimately increase achievement with effective research-based suggestions for working with students who struggle.

This approach to teaching basic math facts, grounded in years of research, will transform students' learning of basic facts and help them become more confident, adept, and successful at math. Mastering the basic facts for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division is an essential goal for all students. Most educators also agree that success at higher levels of math hinges on this fundamental skill. But what's the best way to get there? Are flash cards, drills, and timed tests the answer? If so, then why do students go into the upper elementary grades (and beyond) still counting on their fingers or experiencing math anxiety? What does research say about teaching basic math facts so they will stick? In Math Fact Fluency, experts Jennifer Bay-Williams and Gina Kling provide the answers to these questions—and so much more. This book offers everything a teacher needs to teach, assess, and communicate with parents about basic math fact instruction, including The five fundamentals of fact fluency, which provide a research-based framework for effective instruction in the basic facts. Strategies students can use to find facts that are not yet committed to memory. More than 40 easy-to-make, easy-to-use games that provide engaging fact practice. More than 20 assessment tools that provide useful data on fact fluency and mastery. Suggestions and strategies for collaborating with families to help their children master the basic math facts. Math Fact Fluency is an indispensable guide for any educator who needs to teach basic math facts.
