This session focuses on deepening educators’ understanding of how students build automaticity with basic math facts and how to support that development across grade levels. Participants will explore the progression from fluency to automaticity, with targeted strategies for addition in grade 2 and multiplication in grade 3.
Key components include:
- Understanding the developmental “build” to automaticity
- Strengthening background knowledge and instructional foundations
- Differentiating between fluency strategies and automaticity strategies
- Implementing high-impact practices
- Monitoring progress and reinforcing automaticity throughout the year
Educators will leave with practical tools and insights to support students in mastering foundational math facts with confidence and efficiency.
