4 Must-Haves to Support Math Fluency for Every Student

Spoiler alert: Memorizing, flash cards, and timed tests are not on the list. So what is? Mathematics fluency emerges through a focus on number sense and reasoning. Join me for an interactive and research-based journey through the must-haves to ensure every student develops mathematics fluency.

Session participants will: 1. Develop a comprehensive definition of mathematical fluency is, including specific, measurable fluency actions. 2. Identify important "look-fors" in classrooms and resources. 3. Connect basic fact fluency to fluency across the grades. 4. Determine ways to support a strong mathematics fluency plan in their setting.
