Abstract

The math fact fluency strategies ca:n be used to help teachers support students in their understanding of their basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division facts. This guide will contain research based strategies to improve math fact fluency for kindergarten through fifth grade students. The guide will include research based strategies and materials for teachers to use with their students. The strategies in the guide can be presented by the teacher, throughout the school year, in various classroom settings to assist elementary students in becoming fluent with their math facts.
