Math Facts

What is Math Fact fluency?

Math fact fluency refers to the ability of an individual to effortlessly and instantly recall addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division facts with automaticity.

Each student will progress fluency at their own pace. Fact fluency sets a strong foundation for our students in conceptualizing the facts, followed by weekly practice (at least three times a week) using fun and engaging ways.

How does SplashLearn help with fact fluency?

SplashLearn is a fun and engaging tool…

• Spiral review, after teaching foundational concepts in the classroom, students continue to practice it regularly via our Adaptive learning mode throughout the school year in order to maintain what they have learned and become fluent at it.
• Keeping a fluency check on each fact, a fact is mastered only when a student has answered it correctly within 6 seconds.
• Maintaining a balance between online and offline learning through our custom tests and worksheets.
• Teachers can keep track of student’s progress through our weekly adaptive fact practice report. Teachers can dive deep into each student's fact progress with our Fact Fluency student report.

What is adaptive and custom fact practice?

Adaptive fact practice

Adaptive fact practice assesses and adapts to each student’s level and gently guides them to fact fluency at their own pace. This allows each student to master fluency at their own pace. A fact is mastered when a student correctly answers it within 6 seconds.

Custom fact practice

Custom fact practice allows teachers to create a quick online test or print a custom worksheet by choosing a set of operators and numbers they want their students to practice.

When to assign which mode for fact practice?

Adaptive mode is best for regular in-class fact practice as it adapts to the student's level and takes care of them individually. Once you assign Adaptive Math Facts, the adaptive mode will take care of all the students until the practice is complete; you just have to ensure they practice daily.

Custom mode is best for assessing the students or if you want to focus on a particular operator and set of numbers. As a teacher, you get complete control of what students will practice fluency.

What happens if the student misses the assigned adaptive practice day?

Even if students miss practice days, they will always start the practice from where they left off.

How can students access the assigned Math Facts?

Teachers can assign Math Facts by following the steps mentioned in the article How can teachers assign Math Facts?

Students can access the dashboard by logging into their accounts with the class code and the password and accessing the assigned Math Facts under the From My Teacher tab during school hours (7 AM to 3 PM local time). 

However, if they try to log in after school hours, then it will ask them to link the parent's email address with the students.
