I have noticed that very few students have their math facts memorized. I believe this is a foundation for their math skills so I will be pushing math facts for the rest of the school year. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, each student will be given a 1-minute test. Students will need to receive a 50/56 in order to pass that test and move onto the next. These tests will only add 1-2 new facts each time. If a student does not pass the test, they will need to take their test home and do the back side. The back side will be an exact copy of the test. This will be HOMEWORK. If a student passes the test, they will not have math facts homework. For every 5 tests a student passes, they will receive a prize. I am hoping this will be incentive enough for students to be practicing their math facts every night. Thanks!
