This session equips educators with the tools and understanding needed to guide students toward automaticity with basic math facts in the early grades. Participants will explore the developmental progression from fluency to automaticity and learn how to strategically build this foundation across grade levels.
Key components include:
- Understand the progression and “build” to automaticity in mathematics
- Explore how K–2 instruction supports addition fact fluency by grade 2
- Examine how grade 2 lays the groundwork for multiplication fact fluency in grade 3
- Apply strategies for fluency and automaticity
- Learn how to monitor and strengthen fluency and automaticity through formative practices
Educators will leave with a clear roadmap for supporting students’ math fact development, practical strategies for classroom use, and tools for ongoing progress monitoring.
