FAQs
Why should I choose your Fact Fluency First program over others?
This fact fluency program is laid out so that you know exactly what is expected of students. It is targeted specifically to strategies that you can use immediately in your classroom. Paired with engaging games, your students will beg for fact fluency time in the classroom. Everything is laid out for you (strategies and tutorials for the games) by me personally.
Is this program hard to implement?
All you need is 10 minutes per day to implement the games and strategies. Sample schedules for how to incorporate this during your math block are included.
Do I need to buy a lot of extra materials for this program?
Most of what you need is included in the program. You will need simple things that most classroom teachers already have, two sided counters, pattern blocks and page protectors/lamination. These games are simple to implement, without alot of prep from the teacher.
Aren’t timed tests the best way to teach fact fluency?
Timed tests are only used for assessing automaticity, not fluency.
Fact fluency is SO difficult for me every year, will this really work?
If implemented as suggested, your students should gain great strategies, and if given time to practice, they WILL be successful.
Do you offer other services or products besides fact fluency?
Fact Fluency is a special passion of mine, and I’ve spent over a decade perfecting this program. However, I do offer other areas of professional development! I travel all over the United States delivering professional development in all areas of elementary mathematics.
