Math fact practice ideas
Xtramath (https://xtramath.org/#/home/index): This is basically online flashcards. It's free to sign up and you can get weekly progress emails about how she is doing. They give one fact at a time, if the student misses they give the answer and they will repeat this problem later in the flashcards. If she gets it right, they get harder. It emphasizes knowing them quickly.
Multiplication.com (https://www.multiplication.com/games/all-games)-- simple games that you have to practice math facts with.
