[quote=Anonymous]One major skill in early elementary is to get kids super comfortable with their math facts. They need to know all the math facts without thinking or counting on their fingers. Often modern math curricula don't spend enough time practicing math facts, so kids lack confidence and struggle with harder skills. It's like trying to read without knowing your letters or letter sounds--it just doesn't work. Also, keep up math practice over the summers. Don't let kids get rusty and forget the skills they've worked hard to build. Games like Sleeping Queens are good for this practice. But a worksheet or app can be good practice too.[/quote]
