*The math fact assessments will be over 100 addition facts for the remainder of the school year. I will not require students to meet the time requirement of 5 min. until we have gotten back into the groove of school. We will work on facts in the morning and during math but it would be a good idea for your child to work on flash cards or use a math app (My Math App) to help them practice for a few extra min. everyday if they are struggling to meet this requirement. You might also want to use a blank piece of paper when they are doing their fact homework sheet to cover up the extra rows, allowing them to only focus on one row at a time. Some children get overwhelmed by the number of problems on the page; once that is added to the stress of being timed some students freeze up.
