Our brains respond to something when it is repeated over and over; it becomes second nature. Tatum has seen this happen with her phonics understanding; she’s seen it with piano and swimming. Now, it’s time to master our MATH FACTS!
She did not do so well on her first assessment; she knows her +1’s, doubles, doubles + 1, and +9’s. BUT, not in a mad minute!
So we practice. We do flash cards constantly.
And I carry them around. EVERYWHERE.
Then, I give her little practice tests. If she can get to a minute, then …..
I hope to give her a BIG prize!
Down to 1:24. We are getting there. Sweet girl, you’re doing so well!
UPDATE: she is getting there with her facts. Almost less than a minute on two sheets.
