Directed Drawing For Math!

Most of my students have a good understanding of our math concepts, but could definitely use some practice with basic math facts and speed of recall.

Fast recall of facts will help them in later grades when the concepts become more complex. Daily repetitive practice helps with speed of recall, but that’s not always engaging for students.

Question:

How can we make basic math facts practice more engaging and fun?

Answer:

Integrate your math practice with other activities that students LOVE! One example is an easy one. Just pair students up when doing math problems. Each time they complete a question, they add an element to a collaborative drawing. Give it a try!
