Success Academy educators share some of their favorite tips and resources for helping kids master math in the classroom.
At Success Academy, we believe that mastering math facts is the first step to a student’s long-term success in math. When kids learn their math facts “in a snap,” they don’t have to waste their brain power on basic calculations and can solve challenging problems with increased confidence and ease. Ultimately, math facts help kids gain building blocks to the analytical problem-solving skills they need to analyze and answer questions about the world around them.
In order to invest parents in the importance of math facts, it’s important that you can speak clearly and confidently about why kids need to master them. To help get the conversation started, watch this video explaining why we think math facts matter!
Routine communication between teachers and parents is essential. When teachers keep parents in the loop about students’ progress, parents can better support their kids’ at-home practice. Take a look at this parent email template, which is full of empowering tips on how to seamlessly build a nightly math facts routine. It’s helpful to remind parents that integrating time at home for learning can be short and sweet, and consistency is key. We recommend that you make a copy and send it at the start of your next math facts unit!
