They've Arrived!

I'm very thankful for Sunday delivery from Amazon! My two minute timers have arrived just in "time" for Monday. In my class newsletter, I explained how we will be utilizing another way to build fact fluency besides the xtramath website. Flash cards here we come! Each student went home with a set of flash cards in a plastic bag for home use. Students will be practicing those same facts at school with a partner. (I made two sets so we didn't have to worry about the flash cards getting lost between school and home.) They will time each other for two minutes and keep track of how many facts they could do correctly. The goal is to improve each day. Here we go!
