Math Fact Flash Cards

XtraMath

XtraMath is a cloud-based smart program which tracks students' progress in fact practice. Beginning with multiplication, the XtraMath coaches students through the times tables. The program promotes students to division once they have reached mastery of multiplication. Both teachers and parents can track this progress. Students are given account information at the start of the year.

Apple application available for XtraMath, though I advise that you do not purchase it for $4.99. It's a fantastic program. Access using Safari instead.

Practice is essential

Math fact fluency refers to a child's ability to automatically recall basic math facts from the four operations. Mastery of these facts this allows children to retrieve them without attention or conscious effort.

“The development of automaticity is critical so students concentrate on higher order thinking in math.”
