Efficient Fact Learning • Fluency Involves Accuracy and Efficiency. Fluencyisachievedthroughtheaccuraterepetitionofknowledge,inthiscasemathfact“sentences.”It is very important to drill for fluency only after the student is able to produce a math fact accurately. The studentshouldneverbeplacedinasituationthatforcesthemtoguessandproduceafacterror.Verbalizinginaccuratefactsentencescompromisesthelearningprocessandleadstofrustration.Studentsshouldalwayshavetheabilitytoeitherrefertothecorrectanswerandreadit,usealearnedstrategytocreatetheanswer,orsay,“pass”andhavethecorrectanswersuppliedbeforeexpressingtheentirefactsentence.Agreatdealoftimeisspentinmathclassdevelopingstrategiesthatpromoteawarenessoffactfamilypatterns,andempower students to construct accurate fact sentences. Progress in efficiency cannot be achieved without accuracy.

They also lend themselves to many seman-ticassociationsthatmaybemodeledandexpressedthroughwordproblems.Skipcountinghelpsfamiliarizethe student with the products; however, it is not a reliable or efficient means to produce facts. The process of defining factors of products by skip counting may place overwhelming demands on the student’s auditory pro-cessingabilities.Studentsoftenmiscountthenumberofbeatsofthecadence,orarriveatthecorrectproductwithouteverrehearsingtheentirefactsentence.Asaresult,theybecomerigidlydependentonthiscountingstrategyandfailtomakeprogresstowardrecognizingandretrievingtheentiremultiplicationfactsentence,oradivisioncorrelate.

UseHandstoModelTwo-TimesFactsandPlaceValueHave students hold out their left hand with fingers extended. * Make sure that their hand is within their visual field- so that they can see it.Teacher: “You are showing me five fingers, one time.”
Theteachershouldmodelthisbymirroringtheirimage-extendinghisrighthandashefacesthestudent. “High five” the student to make a “ clap.”Teacher: “ This is five, two times or one ten.”
Theteachershouldaskthestudenttokeep the student’s left fingers extended.

ShootoutGameStart the game in the ready position: The teacher is extending all five of the fingers on his right hand. This hand should hang at belt level- like an old west gun fighter about to “draw” his sidearm. The student should assume a similar posture -have his five left hand fingers extended with his left hand hanging athisside.Theteachershouldcalloutanumberfrom5to9.Thatisthesignalto“draw.”Both teacher and student rush to display the quantity of fingers to match the number called-out- pointing their handsatoneanother.
The pairs of hands will create a two times fact that should be verbalized by the winner of this finger drawing contest.Theotherpersonshouldstatearelatedfact.For example: The teacher calls out, “seven.” Both teacher and student “shoot-out” seven fingers as pictured above. The teacher and student should move toward each other, clap their five-fingered hands, and identify the number of additional fingers that will comprise the one’s digit of the product (in this case 2+2=4) If the student gets his seven extended first, he must verbalize that 2x fact: “14 = 2 x 7, ” or “ 7 x 2 = 14.”Theteachershouldrespondwitharelateddivisionfact,“14÷2=7.”

Directions for the Skip Counting Template Using Nickels ( or Five Icons)Add nickels, one by one. If the one’s place is vacant, have the student fill the empty space with a nickel, then finger-write the number of tens, and the number of ones in the appropriate place-value boxes, and verbalize thisnumber.Iftheone’splacealreadyhasanickelinit,havethestudentpickitupandcombineitwiththenew nickel to fill one of the vacant ten spots. Have the student finger-write the number of tens, and the num-berofonesintheappropriateplace-valueboxes,andverbalizethisnumber.Examples:• Give the student the first nickel. Ask the student what it is worth ( 5 ). Ask,“Howmanyones?”Havehimplacethenickelonthevacantone’sspot,thenwriteit’svalue(5)intheone’splacebox.•Givethestudentthesecondnickel.Thereisnospottoplacethenickelintheone’splace.The student must move the first nickel and combine it with the new nickel to fill one entire ten’s place.

When presenting the nine times family flash cards that present the factors and a missing prod-uct,useasimilarstrategy.Theten’sdigitinthemissingproductwillbeonesmallerthanthetopfactor.Thestudentshouldsubtractonefromthetopfactor,thensaytheresultingnumberasadecade.Thisisusuallyenoughtotriggertheseconddigitoftheproduct.Ifnot,itmaybecomputed by finding the missing addend to 9.
Start using these flash cards after the student has successfully practiced the flash cards that feature the product ( number in the rectangle). These flash cards are most productive after the ninetimesproductshavebecomefamiliarthroughoralrecitation.
Beginbyusingthistemplateasaworksheet.Havethestudentwritetheproductsinsideeachrectangle. The “trick” is to first write the tens digit by subtracting one from the number in the left circle. This ten’s digit should then said as a decade: In figure 4, the student writes 2, but is promptedtosay“twenty.”Itishopedthatsaying“twenty...”willprompttheremainderoftheproduct.Ifitdoesn’t,thestudentprobablyneedsmorepratice with the flash cards that supply the product.
